Saturday (26):
Multi, Primo, Team Trail Sports Development930-1100: Classic Time Trial. Drayton and Nationals have classic sprints so it’s a good practice on setting a good qualifying pace.
Glide wax your skis with ULLA violet or Swix CH6. Kick wax with a base of Swix VG35, then 2 layers of Rode multigrade violet, and finish with 2 layers of Swix Blue extra. Bring a couple of cans of wax and a cork in your drink belt in case you need to adjust before you start.
You will do 2 qualifiers, 30 minutes apart. Wear your race suit for the qualifiers but also bring warm clothes for in-between the 2 qualifiers. The course is 1 km long (see below). Arrive at 930 and meet at flag row for last minute instructions. You will have 30 minutes to warm up so plan it before arriving.
