Update on Brendan in Korea

Just a quick note to let you know that I arrived in Korea and am now dealing with jetlag again after just getting over the jetlag from Europe! I'm still trying to shake this cold but I think I'm slowly starting to get over it...the bugs in Europe seem to do a lot more damage then when I get sick in Canada. I'm going to do some easy training today though."

"The course is one of if not the most difficult and technical on the circuit with long and very steep climbs with fast and extremely technical down hills which will make for an interesting race. All our races here will be at night under floodlights which will be different as well - kind of like training in Hay River, but with much brighter lights!"

Also, he mentioned that they don't have much snow, so the course is mostly man-made. He is almost certain that he will be racing in Whistler at World Cup #7, and then heads over to Norway for their final set of races. He has been fighting off a head cold and jet lag, but the recent training has not been as intense, so he thinks he is making a recovery. However, he is not sure about how all this has effected his skiing. He also said his shooting has been going well. He thinks the times mentioned on the Biathlon World live results site is European Central time, which would be 8 hours ahead of our times. I have emailed Joanne Thompson for confirmation on that, and will let you know if it is anything different.

In checking the Cross Country skiing results, we see that one of the skiers Bren beat at the Cross Country U23 Trials placed 6th at the World Championships in the same event (15km Freestyle). Which makes me think that Bren would have been pretty close to the podium if he was doing cross country! At least we know he is close to the top in skiing for his age class. By his own calculation, he is now ranking about 45th in ski time among the World Cup Biathletes.

 

Cheers,

Bruce
