Done a lot!


I had only three days in Kalmar before it was time to go again... But it was three wounderfull days!! The weather was perfect, 20-25´C and blue sky. We really enjoyed our time there, and I wish I had some more days...
But as I said, then it was time to go again. Took the train over to the westcoast were mum and dad came and picked me up. The were coming from Stockholm on there way down to our summerhouse in Båstad.
First time I met mum since january, and dad since Marbella in february, so it was nice to see them again.
But I came late (last) thursday night and on friday my team (from Sweden) came and picked me up, so it was just a short visit.
We took the bus and the car over to Denmark for three races there. It was nice to meet the team aswell! Had a great time together, and we did well at the races.
First day I did a breakaway alone, but after a while four girls joined me.
When it was 2km´s to go another swedish girl, Madelene, attacked from our group. Since there were two from Sweden and three from Denmark, I thought it was not my job the take that, but they just looked at eachother, I think Dorte Rasmussen and Trine Smith had a own race between them two, and Madelene could cross the finishline solo. For me and the other three it was a sprint. Since I´m not a sprinter I thought it´s better to make it a long one, so I started with 250-300m´s to go. I almost made it, but Dorte passed me just before the finishline. I got third!

Congratulations Madelene :)

The secound day we made it hard for the others. We were supose to make four laps and our tactic was to go on the others but do nothing ourself the first three laps, but on the fourth we went hard on the attacks. Finally they got tired and Hanna from the team could cross the finishline solo. And Jessica took the sprint :) Good work girls!!

Third day was a mess! The elite (men) passed us in a hill and some girls went with them, but the organisation didn´t noticed until they allready had a gap and then it was too late!
Thomas came to this race, and after the race we went back to Switzerland. Came back monday night.

This week have been nice and relaxing, except for training ofcourse! ;)
Had Carolin and Tommy over for dinner one day, as you can see at the picture. And last friday we went on cirkus with them here in Zürich :) It was really funny to see, and the acrobatics were soo good!
Today Thomas went to Spain so I´m alone, but not for too long. On thuseday I meet up with the national team for Tour of Pologna.
See you,
ciao!
