What is your go-to pre-race song/soundtrack?
Mixture of anything motivational, anything from Taylor swift to DMX depending on the mood.

What would an ideal day look like for you?
I wake up at 6, have a leisurely breakfast and coffee while listening to NPR, to get my news for the day. Go for a ski at around 7:30-8, so I get to the trails just before most other people, it has to be about 25 degrees and sunny. After that, have a quick lunch, spend the afternoon taking care of responsibilities before having a relaxed dinner and getting to bed early.

What is your go-to pre-race song/soundtrack?
My pre-race music has stages depending on how close I am to the race time. A couple hours from race time something to calm the nerves, after that something to get me pumped up.

I also alpine ski, wheelchair race and I am a black belt in karate.
What would an ideal day look like for you?
An ideal day for me would be getting up right around sunrise, going for a nice long ski in the mountains with my friends. Just enjoying my day and life to the fullest everyday having a new adventure.
