World Cup Upate
The world cup season is in full swing here in Eruope. For the past three weeks the US Ski team and I have been traveling to the opening races in Norway, finland, Germany, and now Switzerland. The world cup schedule is always hectic involving a lot of moving around to different hotels and different venues. So far snow has been a little thin at most races but it hasn't stopped the competitions from being as tough and exciting as ever bringing in tons of spectators and close finishes.
for me the goal has been to ease into the season and gain some experience in some of the longer races. So far the sprints have been going pretty well and as a team we are really coming together and improving having already picked up 2 podiums this season! This weekend we will be racing on Saturday and Sunday here in Davos switzerland with a 30k skate and a sprint! check the blog for more videos and updates
