We left Albuquerque on thursday to go training in Red River for two days. Sorry about the clip with the incident in the end but it is the only one I have on this computer. Anyway, training in Red River was amazing, as always. Somehow the sun always seems to be shining there, the snow is always perfect for us and we get to train in some pretty amazing conditions. It does not get much better than that. On saturday we went up to Colorado, had a day off on sunday which included some shopping before we went to Copper on monday to get some GS training before the races. Right after training we went to Steamboat Springs to do the final preparations before the races start.
So, now we have finally arrived in Steamboat and NCAA’s to start the battle for the big trophy! Regionals was not as good as it could have been, but I think all of us wanted to be prepared for this race instead and did not quite go all out. The 2010 NCAA championship races start tomorrow with women’s and men’s GS. Start-time for women is at 9.30, first run, and second run at 10.30. Guys go at 1.30 and 2.25. We are all as well prepared as we possibly could be by now and we come in to this week with high hopes and a lot of will. For me as a senior it is the last shot I have at winning the team trophy, and I really hope the margins are on our side this year. I am sure that if we all just do our best the results will come too. We are ready to rock the hill tomorrow, with a few supporters on the side-lines waving the flags and cheering for us. This is going to be fun!
If you want to watch live coverage of the race, hopefully they will put it up there by tomorrow, but click this link , click “races” and then find Steamboat Springs, CO.
