the Tetons
Click the below Journal Segments
I moved to Jackson Hole, Wyoming from Minneapolis, Minnesota in June of 2001. I started skating in 2001 inspired on my honeymoon in Sun Valley by an adult skater. I did skate as a child until I was about 12. Although this site remains "Skating in the Tetons", I now skate in the Rockies. As of September 2004 I moved to Breckenridge, CO and train at 9,600 feet. I will forever be inspired by the Tetons and remain a part of the Jackson Hole FSC.
I find adult skating to be inspiring. It is a chance for adults to express themselves artistically and to face the constant challenges of the sport. And reap the amazing emotional rewards.
For me it has been an opportunity I thought I would never have after quiting skating as a child.
I will never be an Olympian, but I have different goals, short term and long that will be wonderfully rewarding as my new adult skating dreams are realized.
