Sand Camp has come and gone. Though I cannot give away our training routines and drills, let me just say that it lived up to the hype of being nothing but sheer Hell. haha. Presque Isle State Park in Lake Erie is a very nice area. Its a place I would revisit if not for the memories of agony Sand Camp scarred me with.
  Recently The National Team Coach and a couple skaters that train with him in Salt Lake City (including Simon Cho, World Champ in the 500m) came to Pittsburgh for a Junior Category 1 Camp. It was fun to have so many skaters on our home ice and training with us. The camp was extremely technique oriented and I learned a lot from Chun Sun, the National Team Coach. Coach K was extremely lively in the presence of Chun Sun and the two functioned together like Oil in an engine. They seemed to build off eachother and the knowledge they confidently offered in this limitlessly detailed sport was amazing. Chun Sun was impressed by the Pittsburgh lot.
  The Krueger house is really filling up now. Three more months until the beginning of the racing season!
