Italy - part 1

Here is the first post from my trip to compete at the Europa Cup in Cesana, Italy. I leave on the 12th to compete in Europe again. America's Cup in Park City is next week, and we have no ice time scheduled for the first week of the new year. I have a number of issues to sort out with my runners and equipment, but they can only be worked out on the ice. I want to perform my best here in Park City, and I don't want to go back to Europe unprepared. It is pretty frustrating, and I don't understand why our athletes gets short-changed. I hope an email I sent will result in some answers. If I weren't so completely broke from the first half of the season, I would try to purchase ice time directly through the park.
