Derailed

Heading back to Alaska Wednesday. Got hit with what appears to be a mild case of swine flu (no crazy fever) - it’s the trendy ailment on World Cup this season. Split from the Aussie group this morning and have been laying low in a hotel in Eastern Germany. The head coach got it a couple of days before me, and being his roomie and travelmate I inevitably got it. So I have dropped out of a weekend of racing I had planned with a friend in Austria and bumped my return flight up 5 days. Will update blog with pics and some video from Kikkan's win on Saturday.
