Caribou Woman Hopes Adaptive Training Will Help Her Earn Another Us Parabobsled Team Berth

Tammy Landeen is back home in Aroostook County this week, working out at the gym or hand-cycling outside — weather permitting — with an eye toward rejoining Team USA next winter on the World Cup parabobsled circuit. The 44-year-old Caribou resident expects to be even better prepared for that competition than she was for her debut in international bobsledding two years ago, thanks to an intensive, 10-day training camp she recently completed with the Adaptive Training Foundation near Dallas. “I’ve been calling it a boot camp,” said Landeen, a retired Army sergeant.
