Why I Support The NNF, And I Hope You Will Too.

As a masters skier, I support the National Nordic Foundation, and I hope you will too. I know that our combined contributions will make a direct impact on development for junior and elite skiers across the U.S.

We are part of a larger skiing community. We all feel the same glide under our skis with each pole plant, the pounding of our hearts climbing Powerline, and the exuberance and elation through the cheering crowd on Main Street. We all have the same dreams of crossing the finish line.

Some of our community are just a little bit faster… Or in my case, a lot faster, and that is awesome.

I’m asking all of us to show our support and rally behind the NNF. Let’s give our next generation of skiers the chance to train, race and win the best races in the world!

Wishing everyone fast wax  and easy glides!
