First Eurocup ends!

Today was the last day of the Plattling Eurocup event! Really exciting finals day. As for the semifinals yesterday I kept my place in third, but the two other juniors up in front were fighting hard for first! Both my teammate and I made it to finals and we were ready to dominate! As I hopped in my boat to warm up before my heat I didn't feel as nervous as I did the first two day of competition. It was an awkward sensation  for me, as I am ALWAYS nervous. I felt calm and focused, I was in "the zone". Sadly that all fell apart when I unfortunately flushed on my entry move, other than that I had a pretty good first run! My second run was the best out of all three, I started from the eddy instead of upstream as I was worried to flush. Before my second run I regained focus and was ready to show the crowd what Swedish paddlers are capable of! My run wasn't the best out of the all the juniors but it bumped me up to second place, no other paddler beat that (well the guy in first place did...). I am really happy with my result and I believe this the first competition I have ever smiled in! I am now currently at a hotel about to go to sleep, I have to wake up early for my flight back to Sweden.  My next stop is the USA in two weeks, I am very excited to compete back in the US!
