ski like a girl supports Katharine Eustace

With the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics less than 22 days away, the excitement is building and the qualifying continues.  Sadly, for one of the athletes featured on Panasonic's One Winter, Five Dreams Project her Olympic dream has drawn to a close. Although Katharine Eustace came close to her goal of New Zealand taking a second sled to the games, coming in 5th at the Inter Continental Cup in Calgary wasn't enough to win her Olympic bid.  Even though we won't be watching Katharine compete in 2010 her inspirational story is well worth following.  Read her blog on the One Winter, Five Dreams site.



Katharine is ranked 26th in the world. Not too shabby for a sport she has participated in for only two years!  I think we'll be seeing more of this 34 year old.  Possibly 2014?
