Comments(33) So I have come back to Ethiopia now to get all my paper work done to go to Vancouver Canada. I have had to roller ski to keep up my training. I have searched a lot and found a few places where I can get a good work out. It is very weird that I am roller skiing in January but like I said before, you have to do what you got to do. In this photo is a Radio DJ from Kenya that works here in Addis Abeba for a new all English Radio station. She was curious about African skiing since she knew that there has been a Kenyan skier for the past few Olympics. So she came up to where I was training to see what we do in africa to keep in touch with the sport.
You rock! Keep up the awesome training. I've always wanted to try roller skiing. I'm lucky to live in an area where I can ski on snow for most of the year, Mt. Hood, Oregon. We clinic up there in the summer too. Cross training is so good for you, I think this summer I will give roller skiing a try! Way to make it work. By roller skiing in Ethiopia you can draw in more interest to your sport. You'll inspire kids to be inventive and creative in working towards their dreams. Wow only 10 days until the Opening Ceremony! When so you leave for Vancouver? I'm so excited for you!
