Shelly Robertson Blogging from Switzerland
The Reno-Tahoe Blog will occasionally feature entries from athletes sponsored by Reno-Tahoe, America's Adventure Place. Shelly Robertson, who lives in Reno, is a member of the U.S. Ski Team, and was the 2004 U.S. dual moguls champion.
Hope you all are having a great Fall! I was in Reno the past couple of weeks and it was really nice to be home! I was training hard everyday, a little bit in the gym, but mostly outside because the Fall weather was perfect; lots of running in the mountains, playing tennis, riding my bike and BBQ's with my friends.
Now I'm in Switzerland for the next two weeks training in Zermatt. It's my first time here and it is amazing. Emiko and I are staying right in the center of town in the cutest little apartment that looks right up at the Matterhorn - so beautiful. Everyday, we take one gondola and two trams to get to the top where there is a glacier and a course set up. The last couple of days have been blue bird so we are very happy! Also, a bunch of European teams are here training as well so it has been nice to mix up the scene, as well as the coaching.
Anyway, thanks everyone for all of the emails and support- it means a lot to me! Hopefully we will be skiing in Mammoth soon after my return home!
