Park City, here I come....
Well, I must say, I haven't been so relaxed before a competition of anything, like I am now.....I am so relaxed that I hope I don't fall asleep on my sled.
I am ready for Park City Utah!!
This race, and Calgary right after, are two qualifiers for me, meaning, I have to do them and finish them, in otherwords, come out at the end with the sled. Once these two races are done, or really four races cause there are two races per competition, then I have a straight up shot to go to the Challenge Cup in January to qualify for the Big Show.....okay, now I'm nervous.
Park City is one of the fastest tracks around. If the ice is good and fast, there should be some serious times posted. This is a track where you can hit speeds of up to 140kms. I hope there are a lot of small nations there so I can size up my competition.
My buddy Tim will be there too. We did the school together there last January and he was my sliding partner since we shared a sled. He has started into the skeleton world too now and he will be one to watch out for. He says he has a surprise for me........hmmm, wonder what it is...of course I'll let you know.
I will try to post from there and as usual, the pics will follow when I am back.
In these pics, Tim and I last January getting ready to slide and Tim at the entrance of Utah Olympic Park....5 minutes before I met him...that little speck in the background is me walking up the hill.
As my daughter would say....rock n' roll Daddy!!
