MY WORLD CUP DEBUT!!!!

The team has been in Winterberg, Germany for the past week… We’ve had awesome weather that has consisted of snow, rain, snowy-rain and dark clouds.haha Needless to say, training has been interesting… different conditions on the track every day has made it hard to test equipment. The race tomorrow is going to be bright and sunny!! Imagine that... if any day of the week is going to be nice I'm glad it's race day :)

I’ve always wanted to race on the World Cup team so this really is a dream come true. Intercontinental Cup has prepared me well… training has led me to believe that I can be competitive with this group of sliders so I’m looking forward to the race. I didn’t expect to have the opportunity to race here so I’m more excited than anything… not only that, I don’t have any expectations for myself as far as results so I’m ready to just give it my all and see what happens. I just hope that I’ll be able to stay composed and focused in order to put down a run that I know I’m capable of. I’d like to go out there and have fun… for real, I’m not just saying that!! This is my last race of the year and I want to enjoy it!!

PS: Annie O'Shea is racing in Jr. Worlds tomorrow too... if she wins then I'll get a spot at WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS!!! So wish her luck too :)

Picture: I'm 15th off in the race... I sewed my first bib and got my first credential for a race!! I was kind of excited!!
