Ethan Clarke, member of Yorkshire Dales Cross Country Ski Club, was selected to represent GB at the FISU Winter World University Games in Torino, Italy.
I was the flag bearer for GB at the opening ceremony, I had some good races on the skis, but not so good on the shooting side. However it was a great experience and I learnt lots!
I competed in 4 races, the individual and sprint were the two main races that I did, where the skiing was my best I had been all season, but the shooting not so good which led to not finishing as high as I could have.
I then did a relay race but unfortunately we got lapped in that race, plus in the pursuit race where I also got lapped but we started 4 minutes behind so unless I shot clear it was very likely to be lapped.
Thanks to the Jack Bloor Fund for helping me fund this trip.
