First Race

First race of the season, I wouldn't say it went to much success. I skied quite timidly. It was miserably cold. It was a fast course with large ruts by the time I went through. My first run was atrocious I must say it but my second run was better. I was starting to link my turns together just got caught up in some large mistakes which pretty much made a similar run to the first. This isn't bad with four days training gates. The race itself was extremely packed with people with 60 odd points running from bib 90 and up which is quite unusual. I am pretty sure I scored very similar points to when I first raced FIS. That's not a good comparison at all. I am hoping that I start skiing to what I am really capable of tomorrow.
