Had  a good weekend with a 3rd place Saturday in Oostduinkerke and another victory today in Deerlijk. I’m happy to do more racing kilometers and that my sprint is stronger than last year. Some extra training before and after the race also gives me the confidence to take a rest day tomorrow.

Thanks to all the supporters who were there in the cold wind.

Oostduinkerke Saturday and Deerlijk Sunday, and togheter with my team and of course my great supporters I look forward to do what I love the most; racing!

The last months I got one special supporter following me. Jeroen Vincent made a facebook fan site and got all kind of news and reports over my racing. A pity that I still havent had the pleasure to meet him for real yet. Every time Jeroen supports me at the races he disappears in the crowd. Jeroen, please come and say hello the next time! And for all the rest of you add his fun and well updated “Emma Johansson fan” group at facebook!

I also made a new supporters t-shirt. If you want it, take contact with me at the races or visit my favourite bakery “Molentje”  in Ruien/Kluisbergen.  At the bakery “Ma” will meet you with a smile as always. Here they also have belgiums best  ”rijst taart” who helped me finish my long trainings many times when the “hunger klopp” was almost killing me. :-) But one small warning… the easter chocolat have arrived.

To all my friends and supporters, thanks for making racing so fun!

See you at the next races.

Emma

Looked like the cold “Swedish” weather suited me…

I took my sorry ass up Patersberg without any help…. The race was all made by my teammates great racing in Kluisbergen and Knokteberg. In Patersberg we road away.

In the sprint with 4 I was clearly the strongest. I tried to jump at about 2km to go but in the end I had to trust my sprint….

Just happy crossing the line as the first!

 This was a team victory! Last year we were a small team. This year we made the race and took control. We put pressure on the bigger teams and stuck to our offensive tactic. That clearly puts RedSun up with the toppers.

Just enjoying the victory! After podium, antidoping control and some time with my teammates I was invited to a birthday party. One glass of champagne for everyone of my teammates…. :-)

Trainingcamp was good and a bit cold… It´s February and still winter so guess it´s nothing to complain about! Did not have any problems to carry out my trainings and especially the last three days was great :) even got to see the Puig Major this year!
Besides training I got to know the new teammates a bit more and of course I spend alot of time resting on my bed watching the Olympics. Goosebumps all over my body when one medal after another have been rolling in for Sweden. And aswell I have had feeling with Helena Jonsson (biathlon skiier and big medalfavourite). So much expectations and with all the press it has been very hard for her. No medal so far but I cross my fingers for her tonight. I still believe she can take a medal and she really deserves it! She is from my hometown and our dads used to work together… of course it makes me think about London 2012.

Besides all the training I find some time to spend together with my future husband, yesterday we spent a romantic afternoon in a spacenter VillaSana. Nice relax before the season starts :)

Tomorrow we have our first rest day which I think the whole team will like ;) Weather here is cold but so far we have been lucky to avoid the rain and we have been able to perform all planned trainings without interruptions.
Before I left Belgium me and Martin were on a birthday party celebrating our neighbour Ronin´s 9th birthday! The whole Heirweg was there and it was lovely to see everyone again. Waffles and a glass of wine and all stories of what have happened since we left Zingem in October!
At 22:00 the party was interrupted by a phone call… Antidoping was standing at my door and I had to pee in a cup :)  
I think it’s very good that they come and do the controls, and it´s nice to see that the Adams system that I fill in every day is working.

Now time for dinner and then some Olympics on TV – Still waiting for the first Swedish medal!
