The following is anarticle written by Colin Rodgers -ed.]I wake immediately. Eyes open, body alert, readyto go. It is 3:55 AM on Fourth of July weekend. I setmy alarm for 4 AM the evening before, but I alwaysseem to rise early when I am getting up to do somethingimportant. I lie in bed still, for a few secondsand think about what the day will bring.I am in Bar Harbor, training with the MaineWinter Sports Center Cross Country Ski Team. It is themiddle of the summer, but we are not here for a longweekend of partying, we are here for our annual trainingcamp. Once a summer we come down fromPage 42Aroostook County in far northern Maine to enjoy thetraining that Acadia National Park has to offer. Milesand miles of amazing carriage road running trails,rolling mountains on the seacoast and cracked pavementroads greet us as we walk out our door. Due tothe fact that the park police do not allow roller skiingon the nicely paved roads inside of the park we areusually confined to numerous laps on one of the lesstraveled, beat up roads on Mount Desert Island.However, this morning we are getting up early to beatthe system. The team has been holding an annualtime trial up to the top of Cadillac Mountain for severalyears now. In order to do this we need to be donewith our workout before the park police startpatrolling at 7:30 AM. This year, we are getting upextra early though because our crazy Swedish coach,Jens wants us to start a new tradition- two times to thetop. First time up classic, second time skate making ita Duathlon. I think we are all a little crazy though forfollowing his lead. Either way, this is a workout wehave been training several weeks for. We are morethan ready.As I get out of bed and get ready to go, the sunhas not yet risen, but it is starting to get light. Thebirds are starting to become alive. Most people arejust arriving back from the bars. We are going outtraining though, and this is what I love doing – trainingfor a purpose. This year the purpose is chasing adream, and that dream is Torino.Unless a man has trained himself for his chance,the chance will only make him ridiculous. -William Matthews-Make it countEnormousWinter SavingsRetail SaleAWR3815LUM NETTING POCKET HEADLINER DISCOVERY....................................$ 25.38 17.99RNW5112 WAXOYL MOTOR CARE 473ml BOTTLE .............................................$ 25.00 15.00RNW5032 WAXOYL PRE-CLEAN 500ml BOTTLE..................................................$ 9.95 5.97OMEB15 OME SHOCK BUSHING KIT UPPER/LOWER....................................$ 14.50 8.70ISP0643 IRONMAN BUSH TOP SHOCKER D90/110 EUROPEAN ...............$ 15.00 9.00RTC830 BRUSH SET V-8 STARTER........................................................................$ 19.86 11.92RNW5027 WAXOYL UNTRA CLEAN 3 IN 1 1L BOTTLE......................................$ 18.75 11.25RNW5029 WAXOYL INTERIOR CLEANER 500ml BOTTLE ................................$ 17.25 10.35YIB000110 COMPUTER NAVIGATION .......................................................................$1,414.42 1,024.22FRC6275 GEAR SELECTOR AUTOMATIC CHRYSLER 727...............................$ 889.75 695.79ERR5205 FLYWHEEL 2.5L 6CYL DSL 38A RANGE ROVER................................$ 854.72 558.47PLD493 SLAVE CYLINDER CLUTCH R380............................................................$ 61.03 36.62ALR8217 DOOR ASSEMBLY LH REAR RANGE ROVER....................................$ 826.06 559.80DLE000050 MOTOR WIPER WINDSCRN DEFENDER 90/110 24 VOLT............$ 809.84 526.16ERC572 CARBURRETTOR LH RANGE ROVER -
