Netherlands: Little more than a week has passed here in The Netherlands and I have enjoyed getting out on the ice again.
This year I'm skating on new equipment, and it gives me an extra kick and motivation on the ice. I feel allready as strong or even stronger than my best period of time last season which looks good for the future. July the 18 I will do a test race here in Thialf, it's still early enough for races and I want to skate through a good race to see how my new skates react in competition mood.

I've enjoyed the off ice time as well, been able to witness some of the high level inline races down here, it's nice to watch and study and bring some knowledge back home to Sweden. Today I was able myself to try out the indoor track that is situated inside Thialf, and it was a nice challenge (when you don't have your own equipment and a two size to big skates)
However, I will return home with new knowledge for my own inline troop. I'm excited.
A normal week here also includes some beach work, soccer game, volleyboll game, guitarr lessons, as a skater I need some "relaxing" in between acitivties.

I also have good news for my weightclub in Gothenburg, that I might bring home a new weighlifter to join the Gold Team. She currently train with Hollands one and only weightlifter Ingrid, which I've competed against back home in Sweden several times. And we now thought of joining in together for training in the gym, share experiences and advices between each other to become even better weightlifters.
