Flying home
Kikkan rolled out of our room this morning at 6am. She sounded a little resentful when she responded to my "have a nice flight" with "have fun sleeping." But that's the first time I've noticed any hard feeling coming from kikkan and she couldn't have even held that much of a grudge because she left me two different notes reminding me to remember to take my block of brown cheese out of the mini-fridge. Kikkan should be in Copenhagen by now and Torin & I will join her there in a couple hours before we all take the long copenhagen to seattle flight together... 10hrs in the air.
I realize that my previous video didn't go get published. I'll fix it. I'll also put up Newell's quarterfinal so you can see his sweet faceplant. Maybe I'll even put it in slo-mo for you since I know the youtube version doesn't do great quality. Newell made up tons of time after his crash and came back up to the front of the pack but I think it took too much out of him for the long finishing uphill.

Hi LAV-
Do USST athletes get to keep prize money that they win from World Cup events? The payout for the top few athletes at each event is pretty substantial...
Thanks!
NH
yes they do
Hi, I'm curious and asking because I don't have any idea - what kind of payout is there for top finishes in a WC xc race? What does 1st through 5th get?
Thanks!

I didn't know they got to change skis halfway during the race. We aren't allowed in citizen races.
