Wanted to see the Ecuadorians Also there was another Venezuelan (only!) 5 minutes faster than Solano. The Russian press are reporting that Solano saw snow for the first time five hours before he started his race, Don't know if it's true but it's a great story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on Czech national news as well. The BBC, ESPN and all the major news networks are reporting about this. Unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahjfcshfghb 285 Posted February 25, 2017 #296 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I actually went and wrote the Israeli Ski Federation- they said that if I fund myself and get Israeli citizenship (which I am eligible for) they will give me a platform to race in FIS races, and start funding me if I get 'elite'. Time to hit the gym. And I might move to the Northern Hemisphere in the next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get yourself some rollerskis now then and start working on the technique They're not even that expensive and as long as you've got a decent road somewhere, you can go out and train If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

But well $200 min plus shipping to New Zealand... Keep in mind I'm still in highschool! And there isn't really anybody in my city who runs courses for this sort of thing.

Julius Yego learned javelin throwing through watching YouTube videos and became world champion, come on, 'there are no courses' is no excuse The expenses are the harder part then, but if I were you I'd seriously consider putting a few dollars and/or euros aside each month so you can buy yourself some decent equipment when you're back in Europe If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

At least in the early stages. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
