surfs up!!!

hey guys! jsut got back fomr surfing and checked my blog- thanks for posting jo, i know who REALLY cares about me!!! anyhoo surfing was AWESOME today!!! we got the whole catch the wave and jump onto your feet thing going on. my favorite was this one wave where i caught it just right and dropped down into the wave going like 90 miles an hour and it was so freaking sweet. i loved it. and it was sunny and not windy today which is unusual. anyways its been a while so i better update this alot! we went climbing in Wanaka, this GORGEOUS town, and that was way fun!! that same weekend, sven and i ran the Mota Tapu marathon, which was this crazy crazy run through the mountains, from wanaka to arrowtown. it was pretty much all uphill for the bulk of it, with 8K of downhill at the end (but by then you hurt so much that it jsut hurts to run downhill anyways....)but i had a lot of fun, and sven did SO well! he got 16th, he was at the front of the pack the whole time! i was happy to be under five hours and not last. and there were all these stream crossings that were like up to my waist and crazy!! it was a cool run. wea re oging to do the queenstown marathon on april 2, because, we are already in shape to run, so why not??? yeah i recovered a lot quicker than my first marathon, so thats good. anyways well lets see...jsut been hanging out, writing papers and class stuff and outdoor activites. OH we went on this white water kayaking trip yesterday down the waiau river, it was gorgeous!! and the waves were way fun! i was rockin the rapids i had a blast! and i didnt tip over! and i rolled my kayak, which i am glad i still remember how to do!! anyways well thats all i got for today i guess.i will try to get a few pictures on here (like of surfing maybe) soon!!! love you guys!!!
