In addition to getting copious amounts of fieldwork done for my job during an unlikely time, I also took the time to enjoy two activities unique to Juneuary 2012.
Might as well make the most of June-uary, since there are only a few weeks left.

I’ve signed a team up to compete in the Disabled Sports USA Far West 2012 Ability Challenge. It is a fundraiser where you also get to compete in an All Mountain race by wearing a chip and skiing through different checkpoints. We are competing with an all female SheJumps Team. Each member has to raise $200, but my individual goal is to raise $500 for this stellar organization.
Click here to donate! Any amount helps!
If you don’t know about Disabled Sports, it’s a non-profit that helps people get out and participate in adaptive sports at an affordable price. I started volunteering with both their skiing and whitewater programs last year and have had so many memorable days. Just a few days ago, on Christmas eve, we skied with a 55 year old woman who thanked us at the end saying that it was her best Christmas ever.

So, don’t make me beg and harass you like Donna Abadone or whoever your local NPR person is… donate! And, as always, thanks for reading this blog.

Four super awesome women showed up to compete in the 1st Annual Angora Lakes Triathlon on Saturday, August 6th. I am super grateful to our one amazing volunteer Sarah who cheered us on, timed us, and helped us transition. The best part was that everyone rolled in to the finish laughing and saying how much fun they had. Some people said they wanted to do this race every weekend. It was that much fun. So mark your calenders for the 1st weekend in August, 2012, 2013, and so on.
