End of the racing season!!

I just finished my racing season two days ago. 

Although it was a season coming back from injury, it turned out to be a great one. 

Last year after my knee surgery in February, I knew I wanted to keep skiing and reach my goals. At the same time I also had difficult times because I was not a part of the Canadian National Team. I had to organize most of my training by myself, had to budget my whole year and find some strong supporters that would help me out financially to get to the races.  I have to say that without my sponsors I would not have made it through the season. Not only did they help me with their generosity but they were also there for me during the hard times.

A big thank you to all of my sponsors. 

About six weeks ago when I rejoined team TBS (www.hans-olsson.com) in Italy at a European Cup, I could finally start seeing light at the end of the tunnel. The coaches of team TBS Helli and Alois worked with me a lot and showed that they had confidence in me.  I knew that if I kept  working hard and kept my goals in sight the season could still turn out to be a good one.  AND IT DID!!!

Thanks for your help TBS!

What a great win it was at the Canadian Nationals. 

I also just spoke to Anna and she told me that her hip surgery went really well. They cleared out a bunch of cartilage that got caught in her hip joint and she will lose the crutches in a few days from now.

Yeah Anna!! Keep it up and you will be back in no time.

Yesterday I travelLed from Denver back to Montreal.  Now I will have some time off, re-energize, spend some time with my girlfriend Julie and get ready for a good summer, which I will be spending a lot in the gym and on my bike. 

Enjoy the last few days on your skis everyone and stay posted.

All the best,

Jeff
