My friend saw the Canadian ski cross team a couple of days ago at a lesser-known local ski hill where they set up a private training course. Smart, the competition might be relaxing too much in Vancouver/Whistler where it could be hard to get in practice runs.

Sunny warm weather here on west coast for next 5 days, bad for outdoor Olympics stuff. Insanely mild winter, flowers sprouting, people are starting to mow lawns.

If I was a small child I would be screaming at my mother to buy me a snowboard right now, while launching off my couch while attemping McTwisty's with onions on the side....then I would make my own, home made gold medal, and sing the national anthem on the footstool with a red, curly wig.......SHAUN WHiTE!!!

It may be too early to tell but has the "Own The Podium" program been a success?
Right now it doesn't seem like it. We haven't done any better in the areas where we normally don't do well and I thought part of this program was to better are chances in these events. We have been terrible in cross country skiing, ski jumping, and biatholon. Without a substantial increase in medals from previous years I would say the program was just a great big waste of my tax dollars. |
