2009 World Junior Championships


This weekend' North American Cup in Callaghan Valley concluded a three week racing tour of Western Canada. January 17 was the first World Junior Trials Race in Canmore Alberta. I finished the week as the top Canadian Junior, going into World Junior Championships. At World Junior Champs (January 25-February 4th), I had three tough races, with a top result of 47th. In the relay, the Junior Canadian team finished 15th. The tour concluded this past weekend at the Whistler Olympic Park, with a North American Cup. I had two good races, finishing in the sprint 3rd among the Senior Men. It feels like a long way off to next years World Championships in Sweden, but I am determined to work towards my goals for 2010. I learned alot at my first World Champs, and will hopefully beable to carry it through the rest of this season and into 2010.
