This is me and an Armenian taxi driver speeding on a 6 hr drive from Armenia through the border to Georgia to catch a flight. I’m not sure what the red light is for but I hope it makes the car go faster. My race in Armenia didn’t work out. The night before the race we had a downpour of fresh soft snow which doesn’t work so well for my one pair of Hard track skis, that mixed with my weight and I struggled through the course. 21 hills and I felt every one. But there are no excuses, I fell short of the mark.

I chose the Armenia race over the Croatia race and paid the price. As soon as I finished the race I decided no matter what we would try and find a way to get to Croatia by tomorrow morning. None of the flights connected so we searched all surrounding countries on both sides and here I am next to my friend who doesn’t speak a word of English, probably a good thing as I need the rest.

My amigo from Chile Yona helped by lending me a pair of his skis in case the conditions are soft snow again and we waxed them on the hotel dining table. My other amigo German from Mexico helped find a private taxi to try and get to the race on time.

There is a very slim chance we will get to Croatia in time for this race and with no sleep. Wherever there’s a chance we will take it. We don’t give up.
