TC with The VeVe Brothers

With Christmas getting closer, I wanted to find an answer to my doubts if Santa Claus really exists. My last weeks training camp with The VeVe Brothers in Akäslompolo, Lapland, proved me, that he certainly must exist. The landscape is filled with magic. The always rising/setting sun, the crisp cold nights, the emptiness, the beauty, the vastness… and his reindeers are clear signs of his presence. I think this little movie is speaking more than 1000 words:

We didn’t only spend time training, eating and sleeping, but we also spend a lot of time in our sauna thinking about refined goals for next year. A lot of debates have brought us to elaborate predictions, as you might have noticed at the end of the movie.

Over 24 hours of training in 6 days, this was a good training camp to build up again a base after a two month winter break. Now, if my ankle is willing, I will be able to build up my training for the season 2007.

But in the mean time, let us enjoy Christmas!
