An Update from Tim Burke
08/12/10 Tim Burke | | I am spending the day packing up and getting ready to head back over to Europe for six weeks.

Summer Training for Winter

The ski season is over for the athletes of Synflex
08/12/10 Tim Burke | | After enjoying a few weeks of down time, I’m back to training full time to prepare for next winter. It was really nice to have a few weeks where I didn't have to think about my next workout or race. I spent much of that time catching up with my family and I even managed to get away to the Virgin Islands for a week with a group of friends. It’s really important for me to give my body both a physical and mental break after a long winter of racing and I feel like I accomplished that this spring.
