Day 4 - Men's Training Run #2 Cancelled

One thing for sure about being at the Olympics is that you have to be ready to deal with changes. (and a major lack of sleep) For example, I rose today at 5:15am so I could be at a meeting this morning at 7am. I arrived on time, only to find that the shifts have changed again. Watch the video for the speaches about this. In fact, Ms. Janyk gave a very inspirational speach at the meeting. Worth the watch, especially a day before Michael's big day. They tell us that the downhill will go tomorrow as planed, but......our shifts run like this: 1pm to 10pm tonight is Yellow and Green, 10pm to 7am is red and black teams. I'm yellow, so I will be on the track during the opening ceremonies tonight :-( However, I'm back on the course at 7am tomorrow, on RACE DAY!

After a quick breakfast with Fernando and Wayne (my parters in crime) I headed back to Pemby (local speak) for a break, hence this mid-day entry. THe videos are not really organized well, but there are a bunch up there now. I was able to film Eric and Robbie along with Bode Miller and Dider Cuche during yesterdays training run.

Signing out for now......
