Completely drained.

Two girlfriends with #snowshoes on & one with backcountry skis. They went exploring snowshoeing trails while I did my 3rd Nordic #Sitski training day.

Coordinators/instructors with #VancouverIsland #AdaptiveSnowsports Association want to hire a videographer to come do a Nordic sitski promo videos & have me be a new spokeswoman for Nordic sitski sport & demo the new sitski coming from Switzerland soon.

After saving up for 4 months - I've confirmed my #cabin booking for my adaptive snowsports training trip in early January. It's in a forested rural area in #CourtenayBC & only 15 minutes from shuttle bus meet spot. The hottub, firepit & indoor bathtub will be much appreciated after all the physically active days up on Mt. Washington. I'm bringing one friend as my personal assistant.
I'm a #ParaAthlete with the #VancouverIsland #AdaptiveSnowsports Association & Canadian Adaptive Snowsports Association for #PeopleWithDisabilities.
My first adaptive snowsports trip was in 2020 - I tried out sitski, adaptive snowboarding & adaptive outrigger skiing on that trip. 2025 is my return to their program. I'm taking part in the annual Herb Bradley Snowsports Festival & entering one sitski race I'll be trying out their adaptive Nordic skiing lessons for the first time too.

I'll find out in November if I will get a spot at 2025 VISSA at Mt. Washington. I want to try out their adaptive Nordic program, if I get in. I also want to practice more sitski because I'm interested in doing races if I can get good enough to qualify for competitive racing in the future. I loved riding it down from the Eagle lift summit a few times when I was accepted into program in 2020.

I love Winter & being up on the mountains in snow. I just don't have many opportunities to go up mountains in snowy Winter.
