Calgary....Day 2

I am getting kind of tired looking at the sky at 110kms an hour while sliding....yep, on the first run, turn 8 bit me again and I was on my ass....again. Still held onto the sled though and I am consoled that I am not the only one....apparently, the track workers will be reshaping 8 as it is not just right.
The second run was just awesome....I finally worked out turn 8 and it put me down the straight just right....amazing.
Everyday I learn more stuff about skeleton.....I just wish I knew about these little things before the season started. It is amazing how one small adjustment can elevate your game. I will try to carry this off in tomorow's training runs and see if I can stay consistent.....that's the kicker.
Beautiful day again today... plus 14, tomorrow supposed to be plus 18....shorts and t-shirt weather????.......nah, I'll perfect 8 before I try that...
Well, off to workout....
Me and Chris Hedquist, a US skeleton slider who has helped me out enormously...everytime I pick his brain, he has been bang on....a true world class athlete.
Me and Marci Francis...what a nice couple....oh I'm gonna be in trouble on this one. She is another US slider who is very approachable...she's a great girl.
Me and Deanna, she is a great CDN slider who also makes the skeleton suits...you know, the Peter Pan getaways.....
