My 5th Consecutive World Cup Team!

As i sit here writing this im absolutely exhausted and thats only after 3 races out of 4. Luckily our selection policy for the world cup team drops one race, so if your first 3 races are great it is possible to have secured a world cup spot by the 3rd race if the rest of the field cannot catch your point total. This was the case for me yesterday as I secured my spot. 

Although yesterdays race runs were by no means good, they were enough to land me into 3rd place. I had one large error on each run which hampered my final result, but I was happy with what I learned from the race. There is another race tonight which I will most likely race in, although it means nothing to the final result. I am excited to now refocus on the world cups starting in November and to work diligently at improving my start, which seems to finally be coming around not only in my times but in my understanding and execution of the biomechanics of the start. 

This week has been great, we got a little lucky and got upgraded here at the Westgate resort at the Canyons in Park City, where we are staying and have had a great week. Lots of luxury and good food, something essential after being at the Lake Placid OTC for so long. For the next week I will be here in Park City racing in the America's Cup here, and then returning to Lake Placid after that for a few weeks of preparatory training for the first half of the world cup circuit in Europe. Im really looking forward to it!
