Having won four bronze Europa Cup medals so far this season, I won silver yesterday in the IPCAS Super G race, behind Germany and bronze in the next race in Abtenau, Austria. I am really pleased and progressing towards gold in Sochi 2014.

The weather is warm and wet and today’s Giant Slalom race was cancelled but we are hoping that it will run tomorrow, followed by two Europa Cup Slalom races.

This season I am based mostly in Serre Chevalier, France for training and head back there next week. The Hotel Plein Sud sponsors me and it is a perfect base for training. The atmosphere in the Plein Sud is second to none, the food is delicious, location ideal, there is a swimming pool, stunning views, friendly bar and I feel really well looked after – it’s like home from home.

I will join the team for Europa Cup Downhill and Super G races in Tignes from 7th to 9th Feb… I’m really excited to be racing Downhill in Europe and with some training on the Luc Alphond in Serre Chevalier, I should be well prepared, watch this space.
