It was a great weekend for both Shane Dobbin & Dj Nation of New Zealand. From the results you can see both have been working more on their endurance than the shorter events but over time they will put it all together. It was great experience for them both to go to Salt Lake and see what it's like. It was shame that for this weekend the ice in Salt Lake was not it's usual and very fast having produced some of the fastest times in the World in previous competitions and at the Olympics, but never the less it was still a great weekend.

Now both arrive back in the Netherlands tomorrow where Dj will concentrate training for his Junior World Championships in Poland late February and Shane will get back to his marathon racing with the DSB Bank team.
