Season over, it is time to Thank all the people who made my great season possible!
When the season started I was not so sure how it would go. In the beginning of the season I was sick over two months and my training had to be really light (no gym, no hard stuff, just technic). Instead of hard training I concentrated on psychological side and on technical side in my training. I had to concentrate more on what I did, increse the quality in my training instead of quantaty, which is what I have done in previous years.
So it was a great surprise and relief when things started to work, the season became a great season!
