Racing at Copper Mountain and Breckenridge Training

On Monday, I raced in the Slalom Race and had a good learning experience. I was feeling a little frustrated because I didn't finish my race, but realized that it was the first race of the season and it was a great learning experience. I also realize what I need to work on to do better in the future.

Today, I raced in the Giant Slalom and had two really good runs. I was very relaxed and really just enjoyed my experience. I learned that I need to make sure that I stay early on the gates and that is something I will have to practice through out the season.

I'm really looking forward to learning some more techniques the next few days here at Breckenridge, Colorado.
