I just looked at the results for the race; there were a lot of girls racing sport that I didn't recognize. Congrats, weimie! You had a good time!

I practiced the course thursday and friday and wasn't too crazy about it. I was a little dissapointed at the lack of technical aspects, though it did seem to become a bit more challenging as the week wore on, and the riders tore into it

Since we were pretty beat from a month of riding, I decided not to race the course. We were packing up our booth sat. evening when I heard that my friend from Austin, Kristen, got injured on the mountain cross -- she wound up breaking her tibia and fibula and ankle. We drove straight over to the ER in aspen saturday night and visited her. I didn't see the accident, but when I heard, I freaked out and started crying! I heard from different people terrifing things -- that she shattered both her legs. The thought of her alone in the hospital really scared me. Fortunately, it was just the one leg and she seems to be doing a lot better. The hospital did surgery pretty much immediately and were keeping her there through today.

I heard about her crash...pretty scary.

I saw you walking your bike while I was on the chairlift at practice and I think I saw you doing some runs. All in all....a good race. I was jumping the road jump, clearing the small double after that, dealing with the HUGE braking bumps and clearing the log gap at the end of the course (which I was most happy about).

Erin crashed during her race run, if she hadn't she probably would have won it. The 2 girls that got 1st and 2nd, well....there's some drama about them but I'm really happy with my race run.

Will you be at Telluride?

no, probably won't make it to Telluride, but I'm planning on at least making it out for Final Descent.
