Waking up without an alarm after a great night’s sleep to the scent of pumpkin pancakes being cooked, eating said pancakes over the Sunday New York Times crossword, heading out into the mountains for an epic adventure with friends and views and no bugs nor bonks, then following up with a post-adventure meal at a dinky diner and a hefty nap with my dog, Gertie. Probably some cuddling with the hot water bottle involved too at some point.
Big thanks to Madshus and Rugette for their support!

Changes every year to some unsuspecting EDM banger. Most recently it was "Rave Teacher" by Scooter.
I work at Explore Rentals in Bozeman and also for an online tech company. In between training work and recovery, I generally am building something, trying to get out and climb some rocks, or swimming/fishing in all of our beautiful rivers and streams!
Waking up to 10 feet of stable, well bonded powder. You can probably fill in all the rest, but there also has to be a sauna and a hole in a frozen lake involved at some point.
Haven't bonked since I started bringing Untapped maple snacks to my workouts, and of course I can't wait to get back on my rippin' Fischer skis this winter.

Sovereign Lake Nordic Center up in B.C. for its big climbs, snow-laden pines, and high energy racing atmosphere.
I'm all for anything that calms me down. During college, it was "Hero" by Family of the Year.
I'm coming up on three years at Cafe M. Shoutout to the owner, Tom, my co-workers, and the regulars who have provided me with ample coffee, conversation, and community. Pre-COVID-19, I helped cover DIII cross country and track and field, but that's taken a pause. Currently, my free time is mostly spent studying for the MCAT, contesting the NYT daily crossword, and hanging out on the "Basecamp" porch.
An early alarm to give plenty of time to drink a good cup of coffee before heading out for a long run in the mountains. Preferably the route is a loop and somewhere I've never been before. Something in the Spanish Peaks or the Beaten Path tops my list right now. After some downtime in the afternoon, it'd be dinner on the porch and a bike down to the local ice cream shop before catching the sunset from the top of Story Mill. Any sponsor shoutouts?Yes, a big thanks to Madshus for top of the line skis, boots, poles, and service, Toko for their gloves, and Enjoy Winter for their Bliz glasses and Swenor rollerski product support.

Go for a trail run. Lunch. Adventure workout: climbing, kayaking, swimming. Dinner with friends/family. Sunset+reading a book.

Either going for an epic crust ski or watching the sunset from the top of a mountain. Both options would include yummy snacks, some good tunes and awesome friends!!
