Despite all of these external negatives, I had a much better day of training . The moisture packed the snow down, creating deeper and firmer moguls, and I successfully made it down the 250 meter course more than once.

We ended a successful trip to Sweden with a traditional meal of beef and reindeer meat that we cooked on a hot, salted stones at our table. It was served with various delicious sauces and one disgustingly sweet one. I am unaccustomed to the taste of melted marshmallows with my protein, and it did not agree with my taste buds. I enjoyed this meal with my three coaches and ten team mates, as well as the family that owned the restaurant. The father had been a member of the Swedish mogul team with one of our coaches so he hooked us up with the free meal that ended with chocolate coffee mousse served with figs.

ahlivv’s own Hannah Kearney has kicked off her competition season with a win at the World Cup Event in France. Hannah came out confident and aggressive and took home first place in the dual moguls. Check out the run that won her first place!
