The period after the crash in Beaver almost
two weeks ago has bin tough. First of all you get a punch in the face
mentally. To “get over it” often takes more time then you want and
expect. It feels like you are skiing with a devil on your shoulder,
telling you –“you can´t do it!” Right now I´m struggling to fight back
, show him that I can and to get rid of him…
In addition to this, my
left knee is still causing problems. The torn ligament on the
outside and the bone broose on the inside of the knee, nicely alternate
each other, when it comes to giving pain. This makes putting down the
hammer and going for it even harder.
This week I´m skiing
in Alta Badia, trying to get the good feeling and confidence back. The
progress when it comes to the knee is not as good as I hoped, and the
level I´m at technically, is also off the top level required. I hope at
least the knee will hold up so that we can do a proper amount of
training, witch will give me a fair chance to get back in shape.
In
the end of the week some Europa Cup races is held not far from where we
are staying. If everything runs well, I hope to take place in at least
one of them. This will give me valuable race practice coming in to the
final World Cup competition before the Christmas break.
Anyways, not only negative vibes from the Dolomities. This week has bin beautiful so far. 10 minus and clear sky!
