Wow I had a big week. It was sweet, I got to forerun my first race on tuesday. It went well. It was a europa cup and Hailey and were pushing it. My first run was wild I was so excited to get in the gate and feel that race feeling. I went out the first run but since I was only forerunning I got to go for the second run and I was 7th so that made me feel pretty good. Its nice to see where you stand especially after all the training and when you are working hard to come back in a short period of time. Hailey and I trained on wednesday that was sweet, injected snow in kirchberg, pretty difficult. Then off to Garmisch. The men and women are racing this weekend and so it was so nice to see everyone. A bit hectic too. All the families and mens and womens team in one hotel is crazy. Super fun to see everyone and lots of things for us to do. We got to go visit the Army base here and meet some of the kids that live and visit. Some of the little kids were so cute and excited to see some serious skiers. he he… The women had a slalom yesterday and many people were expecting me to race, but its a very difficult hill to start on and I decided to just free ski the hill on thursday and forerun the second run. Which ended up being a better idea because I was all over the place. The hill was in great condition but its steep and the course set was more intense then I have practices. So it was good to get that out of the way. It was cool to be at a world cup again and see all the girls and feel the vibe and be in the gate and rip through the finish. I was a rodeo queen all the way down so I have a few more things to work on.
Next on the agenda are some fis races to forerun and some more training. Getting ready for France. Hopefully Ill be ready. You know me and how much I love those world champs! Gotta do it! Right… he he
