Miami OCR World Cup

Tomorrow is the start of the first World Cup Event of 2012 in Miami.  I am very excited that we have the opportunity to race a World Cup Event on home waters here in the USA.  It is also great to be back in Miami where I went to college and really kicked up my Olympic Training at The U.

We will use this event to focus on my execution on the race course.  We will have a smaller fleet here at OCR of 26 boats.  This is a fantastic opportunity to practice our execution in a smaller fleet.  At the Olympics later this year we will be sailing in a fleet of 26 boats so this is great practice for the ultimate goal this year.

You can follow the event at www.rmocr.ussailing.org where they will have a live blog, video, photos and much more.  I will also be doing my updates on the blog and also on twitter.  

I would like to thank everyone who has been involved with the campaign.  The entire US Sailing Team Alphagraphics family of sponsors, my personal sponsors and all the donors who make this dream possible.

Following OCR we will have our annual team meeting and I look forward to updating you on all the exciting plans for 2012!!  

Thank you for all your support!!
