Alpine skier Resi Stiegler blogs about her adventures on the FIS World Cup circuit.
Finally got to see the sun shine in 9 days! Unreal. Just in time to head up to Finland. We are done training. Racing time is back on. Training was pretty tough this week but I had to keep in mind what my mother always told me. It's good to suck before a race. I guess I usually do. Who knows. All I know is I want a sick birthday present and kicking butt this weekend is what is going to satisfy that! So I better kick it up!
I'm excited to race. I really like going up to Finland. It's so different and the Arctic life is just so cozy and remote at the same time. I like that feeling, being totally alone but somehow having some warmth in your heart. We had some serious backing jobs going on. One bag we are leaving in Europe for when we come back in December, one bag going to Finland but then we can't bring too much so we are leaving a bag in a car next to the airport so when we fly back through Munich on the way home on Sunday we can run out grab it and check it and get back on our next flight. So complicated. Gotta make sure everything is in the right place! Always exciting and always with a smile! Lots of love!
