A Tribute to Erica
9/11/2008
It’s been a hard few days for many people in the Park City community, and though I don’t have much experience writing about things like this, I am compelled to acknowledge the beautiful life that was lost this week. I am tempted to simply post Erica’s obituary, it would perhaps make this easier, but I would rather spend a bit of time sharing some of my favorite memories of this sweet and vibrant young girl who was taken from this world so suddenly on September 5th, due to injuries sustained in an automobile accident while driving to training.

Summer Games come to an end.
8/25/2008
I've now been asked by a number of people what it was like watching the Summer Games as an Olympian and I thought this write up by US Ski Team writer Lindsey Sine was a good summary of it. As Olympians, we were Beijing obsessed and am so sad it is over!. I also had an amazing week off that I am excited to report on, so check in this week for more of that. Check out this fun article: PARK CITY, Utah (Aug. 25) - While the entire world watched spectacular moments in sport throughout the 2008 Olympic Summer Games in Beijing, U.S. Ski Team and U.S. Snowboarding athletes, who were scattered around the globe at training camps, looked to the Games for inspiration as they make their own progression to their Olympic dreams starting February 12, 2010 at the Vancouver Games just 536 days away.

Back to the OTC
8/12/2008
Hi everyone, I’m back in Lake Placid, and back to Olympic Training Center life again. Quebec was such a great experience and I jumped really well in the semi-finals of the competition, but was disappointed to be bumped out of the head to head rounds by Veronika Bower of Canada. I did however reach my goals for this training block and was prepared for the mid-summer competition with my new trick; the triple twisting: double full full.

Back in Lake Placid
5/22/2008
Hello again! Sometimes life comes full circle, and often for me this involves the Olympic Training Center in Lake Placid, New York where I am currently training. The OTC holds so many memories for me, but this time around the highlights have been eating, sleeping and training, which is about all I have been doing with my time for the past two weeks. It may sound boring, but it has been amazing and I have learned so much. This is the perfect place to focus solely on the daily grind, making everything as simple as possible, and leaving time and energy for the important things in an athlete’s life, like flipping on a trampoline and lifting weights in the gym.

US Nationals Win!
3/28/2008
Hi everyone, Just a quick update on US Nationals! It was a very challenging day with wind and snow (yes… again, the snow cleared by the time the delayed comp started, but the wind stayed all day!), but… with the help of my teammates and coaches I ended up on top of the podium with another US Nationals win with my teammate Ryan St. Onge! I’m so excited and thankful to all the wonderful people who braved the weather to come watch us yesterday. It’s been an amazing season! Read on for the US Ski Team Write up:

Springtime Fun.
3/19/2008
Hello everyone, Though the season sometimes seems like it’s over when springtime comes and sun begins to shine, it is definitely far from there as we still have one of our most important and exciting events coming up in just one week, the US National Championships. I promised to fill everyone in on the schedule, and will attach it here, as well as an update you on an amazing week off that is just coming to an end. I’ve been catching up in the gym and at home but also had a wonderful opportunity to spend the day with some incredible people from the National Ability Center here in Park City for their annual Zions Ability Ski Challenge and their Red, White and Snow fundraising event. The highlight of the day was skiing with participant and my new friend Makayla Greenwood and the Wells Fargo team!

World Cup Wrap Up
3/9/2008
Hello everyone, The World Cup season is now over and I am so happy to be home and to have the chance to look back and realize what a great one it was. I had so much fun and feel so fortunate that I got to see the world and go to such incredible places like Moscow, Switzerland and Japan. Also, it’s been some time since I have had such a successful and healthy season, not missing one World Cup. I even experienced my first world cup win! There were certainly many ups and downs, but I know that I learned so much and I can’t wait for this summer’s training and for next year’s World Cup tour! Anyways, people have been asking about more video, and recently this was forwarded to me, so enjoy, it’s some highlights and my jump from the Deer Valley World Cup.

Davos
3/8/2008
Well, a rough start finished nicely with a great second jump and a 4th place finish in Davos. Also, I finished the season with an overall World Cup standing of 6th place, which I am really excited about, especially after missing the first two world cups of the season in China. I’m off to celebrate the end of the season now with my teammates who are the most wonderful people in the world. Thanks for following my World Cup Season everyone, and as usual check back in for more to come. The US National Championships are in two weeks, and I am looking forward to some time off to rest my mind and body at home in Park City. Thanks for reading! Love, Emily
