2018 – a year like any other?
29 December 2018: A very respectable eighth place in the super-G in Bormio, Italy. What an end to the year!As the obligatory 2018 year-end flashbacks are played on TV, I already know that living in Switzerland is like living in a dreamland: there have been no wars or famines and our country has a relatively low rate of unemployment. Of course, nonetheless the fate of individuals have a very real effect on me. But hand on heart, looking across national borders – let alone continental borders – things are generally very good for most of us here in Switzerland.
Start of the 2018/2019 season
The summer was long and yet it passed by quickly as it does every year. After some intense fitness training sessions, I was back on the snow for the first time on 23 July. A few days were spent getting a feel for the snow and skis again, then I took my first swings through the gates, did my first timed runs and then carried out the final touches for the start of the season in Sölden, Austria.
Marco Odermatt ist neuer NeoVac-Markenbotschafter auf Schnee
Die NeoVac-Gruppe geht mit Swiss Ski-Fahrer Marco Odermatt (21) eine langfristige Partnerschaft ein. Zum Auftakt der neuen Saison ist dies ein gutes Omen für den jungen Nidwaldner, der anfangs 2018 fünffacher Juniorenweltmeister und zweifacher Schweizer Meister wurde und nun einen weiteren Entwicklungsschritt in Richtung Weltelite unternimmt.
Die bald 50-jährige NeoVac mit Sitz in Oberriet im St. Galler Rheintal ist in der Gebäude- und Umwelttechnik tätig und beschäftigt insgesamt rund 400 Mitarbeitende. In verschiedenen Nischenbereichen, beispielsweise in der Wärmemessung sowie im Tank- und Behälterschutz, ist die NeoVac Marktleaderin in der Schweiz.
Marco becomes an ambassador for the Wings for Life World Run
What is the Wings for Life World Run?
2019 will see the sixth edition of the Wings for Life World Run. The motto is the same as before: we run for those who can’t. It’s not a matter of fitness at all. From absolute beginner to competitive runner, from wheelchair athlete to power walker: anyone is invited to be part of the run.
The goal of the event is to raise money for the Wings for Life foundation who expedites spinal cord research. One hundred percent of all entry fees go towards projects that all have one common aim: one day, there has to be a cure for spinal paralysis.
