I am writing from Brooklyn, New York where we have spent the last few days at a hostel, running around seeing the city! I woke this morning to an official letter confirming that I have been selected to represent Great Britain at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Ski Cross! Wow!

After this long journey and the chaos that has unfolded along the way, I am so stoked that the perseverance has paid off!

I now fly to Calgary on the 29th January to the British Olympic Holding camp for all sports. The opening ceremony is on February 12th and Ladies Ski Cross is on the 23rd February! I will be in touch soon.
