What other sport could you be suffering till your eyes are bleeding and at that same moment look over and see snow capped mountains that are perfectly pristine and beautiful?

I really feel that we share a common goal for a clean and fair sport. The team represents the pinnacle of our sport in relation to teamwork and motivation. That is very motivating.
