Who am I?

My name is Rosanna Crawford, I was born and raised in Canmore, AB and started cross country skiing by the time I could walk! At the age of 10 I started biathlon and fell in love! Something about the challenge of skiing and shooting really stuck with me and being able to hang out with your friends wasn't too bad either! At 14 I got to compete in my first National Champs and got a taste of what it was like to race on a bigger scale! By 16 I was on the National team and trying to make international teams. In 2008 I competed in my first World Youth and Junior Championships in Ruhpolding, Germany. That was when I got hooked!
I train full time out of Canmore and spend my winters racing all over Canada and Europe. Follow along as I compete and train all around the World!
It is here that I hope to keep you up to date on my training and racing. I would not be able to do what I love without the support of my family and sponsors, so a big shout out to you guys!
Now what is biathlon you might ask. Biathlon combines the physical exertion of cross country skiing and the challenge of rifle marksmanship. Skiing is always skate technique and shooting is either laying down on your stomach (prone) or standing up (standing).

sLOVEnia

We are now in the town of Bled, Slovenia. Today is the 15km Individual but sadly I will not be racing. I have come down with a cold and racing while sick is never a good idea. I was really hoping to make it through the season without getting sick, so hopefully this will be the only time (knock on wood).
The men race their 20km at 10:30 today and Brendan is lucky number 2!! Seems like he has been at the start of every race so far this year!  
Thinking healthy vibes! 
Cheers
Rosanna
this was the Slovenia saying from the Olympics!
