First Day of a New Season - 02.04.2007

I like April. It is the month where my preparation for the coming season begins. The 2006/2007 season was an especially tough season, but now that the racing is done, I get to take a break from structured training, which means doing the training which is fun and motivating, or if I am tired I can just rest.
My motivation for the 2007/2008 season is very high, as it should be because the training this season will be very demanding. Already I have been analyzing last seasons results and training looking for strengths and weaknesses, and thinking of ways to improve.
Perhaps the biggest change is I will work more with the National Team coaches, Per Nilsson and Michael Lofgren, who both have really brought together the National Team program for the US Biathlon Association. The stars are almost in alignment, is how I like to think of it. By that I mean, the results are best when everybody (such as the US Olympic Committee, the USBA, the USBA staff, and the National team athletes, the sponsors, family and supporters) works in one direction without conflict.
Now with this website, everyone can follow my progress, which I hope to make as interesting as possible.
