Last weekend i was at a competition in Graz and i did ok, but i am very pleased with my self. My short program was a disaster if you look at, it with fall in all jumps. But i realized sitting in the kiss and kry corner after my skate that i wasent upset. I finally not only told my self that i did my best i really felt it. I had really done all i could and i asked my self 2 simple questions, did i try my hardest today? have i prepared my best? and both answers were definitely yes! i did my best for everything in the program.
Sometimes in this sport its so easy to look at what the skater does in a program on a competition and measure how good that skater is. But that really can be misleading and heart breaking to do to your self. I train for so many hours compared to the few minutes at the competition or seconds if you only count your mistakes.
I am in great shape, practice is great and i am proud of my work and i hope all skaters who work hard for this can be proud and happy with there progress! It doesn't matter what competitions say, if you done your best you are worth the world.
You may think this sounds like i have given up, since i say its ok to skate bad =) That is far from the truth, i will always try my hardest and do all i can to be my best!!
The free was of course good, not because i tried harder or was better but because for some reason my free just works better, and that's life.
I uploaded the free skate with the grate commentator from Graz who is really amazing. And an exhibition program i did in Örnsköldsvik.
Thanks everyone and enjoy figureskating.
