If someone told me after my crash in Thursday´s training that I would win the super G in Tarvisio by a margin of 1,01 seconds ... I don´t quite know how I would have responded to that.
Maybe now you can imagine how I feel. It is unbelievable: On Thursday there was that bad crash, on Saturday it continued with place two in downhill and on Sunday there was my 45th World Cup victory: This weekend will always have a special place in my memories!
Thanks to my wonderful environment
But this all wouldn´t have been possible if I hadn´t have such a great background: It starts with my coaches around Kurt and Peter and my physiotherapist Claudia, the Atomic team with my technician Andi Berger and Atomic women´s racing boss Heinz Schilchegger and many more. But most of all I thank my Qi Gong master Werner Tautermann who has made me gather momentum for the two races. Of course I don´t forget my family who is by my side and always supports me at 100 percent.
When it works out then everything´s fine
Strengthened by the victory of the little crystal globe for downhill on Sunday it almost went of its own volition in the super G. As I had completed so much for me by winning the downhill globe I wasn´t under pressure anymore. Well and so I could also establish a personal record by the seventh season´s victory. This winter is just about the limit.
Bone edema in the right shank
Yesterday I was examined in the LKH-Stolzalpe and there the diagnosis was made that I have a bone edema in my right shank. Thank God the ligaments are alright. On the left a damage at the cartilage causes some problems. So I will undergo treatment this week and on Thursday or Friday I will decide whether I take part in the giant slalom in Zwiesel or not!
Thanks to all of you for the fantastic support and the many nice greetings and encouraging compliments im my guest book!!!
