Asda Athletes

Last Sunday we did a slightly smaller fund-raising event, with a tombola.

Although it was a sunny day, there were quite a few shoppers out and we managed to raise money to help pay for my new ski boots.

Thanks Jan for all your help!

I would love to thank all the team at ASDA, Middleton Park for helping me out with my bag pack the other week, and a HUGE thank you to Jan Craig for organising it!! We did some bag packing and face painting, and the money raised will really help me towards my equipment costs this season.

I’m looking forward to doing some more fundraising this weekend! :)

This summer I am staying at home and concentrating on my fitness, which is a really important part of ski racing.

Some of the Scottish team have traveled all the way to Austraila to ski this summer, but i wont get back onto the snow until October.
In the mean time here are a couple of clips from earlier this year in Meribel, France. Enjoy :P

Love Kate x

Instead of having to travel all the way abroad to ski, i have been able to ski on my doorstep!! This amazing season has come at a great time, as my fourth year exams are coming up!

I have been training or racing in Scotland almost every weekend. There has even been a FIS race!! This is the first time since 2001 that a official FIS race was held in Scotland. A FIS race is a junior race, where any racers registered can compete.

On saturday I am flying off to Meribel, France. This is where the British Championships are held. Fingers crossed!
