More from Nationals & Across the Ocean
To start my Wednesday blog, I wanted to give a shout out to Lt. Colonel Tim McKernan, who is serving overseas at this time and not able to see his son & partner compete this week. Piper & Tim wanted to let you know that they're skating hard and they miss you.
During 2007 Nationals, we were following the results from Canadian Nationals. This year, the European Championships are taking place while we are in Saint Paul. While I'm following the results online, I'm also getting tidbits about other parts of the event. On Tuesday, I found out that when the ice dancers (and possible other disciplines as well, but I'm not sure) checked in at the European Championships they were given a sheet of paper with an outline of the body and the question "Where do you hurt?" They are looking into some of the injuries (back, etc.) that have been occurring with the hope of making changes to help in this area. I hope that changes are made. The number of back and knee injuries is becoming more common.
Photos from the Junior OD event will be added post-senior compulsory dance event today.
Time for some breakfast at Bakers Square before we head to Xcel for some Yankee Polkas.
