Hi Ari!

I am looking forward to seeing you again too. You are such a good lifter and an awsome guy. After we met in Finland I really adapted the Sauna into my life. I go all the time now and it reminds me of good times in Finland and Sweden!

I have always had trouble with some aspects of my gs and I am very much looking forward to learning more and trying to fix it. I do agree though, this is going to be super fun and you will get to meet Dolby and Nazo as well. They are looking forward to meeting you.

See you next week,
jw

Hi John!

In your post you are telling what I am thinking! And compared to you I am a dwarf (like almost everybody else!!). Still, this camp is something to look forward to and it will be nice to meet you there.
This weekend we have a Finnish Championship in GS, hope it goes well and no injuries.

See you next week,
yours Ari

John,

Great post mate! It seems we are very similar you and I. Reading this I couldn’t help but think “that’s my life he’s writing about”, minus the trip to Russia. I hope to one day follow your footsteps and get over there and learn from the best.

Good luck my friend, I wish you and Jason safe travels and look forward to hearing all about your adventure!

I put a link to your blog on my website, I hope thats cool.

Speak soon mate…

cheers
