From my father, who I helped book Judy’s place for, “Back in November 2017 I committed to participate in the 2018 World Masters Nordic Ski Championships in Minneapolis. Because the competition included multiple races over a week's time, I needed to find a place for 8 days fairly close to the race venue, Theodore Wirth Park. Judy's place seemed to fit the bill and ended up being just what I was looking for. It was in a quiet suburb only about a 6 minute drive to Theodore Wirth. Judy was an excellent host making me feel right at home. Having a large finished basement for relaxing and stretching out before and after my races was a real plus. She was very understanding of my somewhat demanding race schedule but we still had time to talk about family, our work etc. and she seemed to enjoy hearing about my love of nordic skiing, racing and coaching.”
