Very arctic temperatures at 2nd Ski-o weekend this year. Some spoke about -20° but i think actually the minimum temp. was about -16°. The races were not well organized since there were neither a bulletin start-lists or distances but a real athlete does not need such unimportant information =). Saturday Tyrolean relay in M20 with Adrian Wickert, it was a little fast so quite though race, the format of Sprint-relay with 2 legs per competitor is basically interesting but this race was just shitty. Starting with the fact that 2 SI-Units did not work, and my Si-Card 6 stick did not work on old stations, then legs were almost the same so 2nd lap was just skiing and last but not least there were no results, nevertheless that we and our opponents were sure that we win we got the price for 3rd place =(. Very bad race.
Todays race was even worse, start was delayed for 40min there were 2 if not more missing controls in the terrain and in the results many people had not their real time. But anyway I am quiet happy with my race today, I expected Swiss Skiers much better than they really were. Valentin who started 2min behind me reached me at 2/3 of the race and I could almost keep his pace so I arrived with 2 and a half minutes distance to him. And i beat Federico taking revenge for loosing last week. Now we are even in Italian Cup (for which Swiss people do not count) and I think I can look forward to Jwoc for which I am almost qualified
