Sports Scene


Overland 122:

    My good friend, Bryan O'Neill put together a team (Team Poop II: The Runs) of 12 people for the Overland 122 race on May 15-16, 2004. It starts in the desert in Borrego Springs and ends on the pier in Oceanside. It's going to be a blast, but it's for a good cause as well: 100% of the proceeds go to Athletes Helping  Athletes (the AHA provides handcycles for disabled children, helping them participate in sports and follow their dreams).


SKIING

    MRG"Ski It If You Can" This mountain has by far the best slopes in the east- for those extreme skiers looking for a wild time.  The best part about it is that it's owned by the skiers themselves, so it's not outrageously priced or over commercialized.

Alta Alta is known as the Mad River Glen of the West (or is it MRG is known as the Alta of the East...) Either way, this mountain ROCKs my socks! We took a family vacation out to Utah in Jan 2004 and had a blast. The third day in we got 15 inches of fresh powder! The terrain is open and steep! plenty of bowls to play in and chutes to tumble down. We're definitely going back!

   

Triathlon:

    My good friends, Dave and Monette Williams, are really into Triathlons so, I decided that I wanted to see what the hype is all about.  So far I've done two - they were awesome and I lived to tell about it!


Camping and Hiking in North Carolina:
   With the Smokey Mountains, views on the Blue Ridge Parkway, and even woods around the Triangle area- It's a beautiful state to be outdoors...

 

Rafting:
    Two years in a row we've headed to the New River in West Virginia with the New River Scenic Whitewater Tours to take on the Gaully. To say it was awesome would be an understatement.
