Park City......Day 2
Rain, snow, sleet, freezing rain, wind, wind, and more wind but warm of course. That was the day today. Ice was about 2 secs slower than yesterday which changes the dynamics of the course a bit. Gotta be more patient before doing too much on the sled.
Anyways, couple of more hits today but overall better runs than yesterday. At least I can go to the pool and whirlpool and not look like a leper.
Some more nations at this race, Armenia, Czech is back, Swiss, Trinidad and Tobago (yea, that's what I'm thinking too......I'd rather be sunning at the beach down south). So it is nice to see some new faces along with the same faces.
My buddy Tim is here visiting also and made me a great sled bag with the Greek flag on it so I brought it into the start house today to do some free advertising for him since he is selling them.
Two more practice slides tomorrow and then race days to follow. It is truly amazing....by looking at the split times, from 51.69 secs to 51.21 secs, there are 10 positions in there.....not even half a sec to blink an eye.
Hopefully the ice is nice tomorrow. Of course, pics to follow.
Tim and my new sled bag, my Polish friends, Keith and Steve of Canada and my Czech friend Martin.
