Great job with last week’s training load. The focus for this coming week is on recovery with a few key intensity workout.
* I have organized a time trial with Blackjack and Kimberley Nordic for Saturday (3rd). The idea is to leave in the morning, race at 1pm and return after. A long day, but it’s good to break the routine. Kimberley is 3.25hrs away. The TT is 7.5 & 10km skate. This day is for those of you that are ready for this time trial (based on feel and OW results). Those of you not ready, will stay home and train OYO. We will need 2-3 vehicles.
* There is a XC Nationals meeting this week. Wednesday after the workout at 6:15pm, bwtc. We will discuss the logistics, team sprints, pre-packing, etc…. Please note that we would like all of you to race the team sprints but there might not be a team for everyone as teams are 2 people. Do not register for the team sprints until after that meeting. All athletes going to Nationals need to attend. Parents are welcome but it’s not mandatory. We will also discuss transportation for Kimberley for the Saturday TT.
Tuesday (27): LC/LC+. Classic. Today we will NOT SKI BEFORE JR ANYMORE. You will join a Jackrabbit group helping the regular group leader. You will need to say a few words to the young kids and doing some technique demos. I really want all LC’s to be there today, this is an important day for the young kids in our club. We will meet at the team room at 5:00pm, with warm clothes. You need 1-2 clothing layers more than when you train. It would be great to wear your cnsc jacket as the top layer if it fits! Jackrabbit ends at 7pm
Wednesday (28): LC+. Meet at team room. 4:30-6:15pm. Skate distance with some speed. Nationals meeting at 6:15pm, bwtc
Thursday (1): LC/LC+. Meet at team room 4:30-6:00pm. Team Sprint practice (Z7) in classic. Don’t eat a large snack right before the workout. Kick wax your skis with Rode multigrade purple.
Saturday (3): LC/LC+. Time Trial in Kimberley is cancelled and we will have our own in Canmore. We will use the 3.3 Olympic course. 2 X 3.3km for the women and Juv boys; 3 X 3.3km for the Jr B and Jr M. Skate. Meet at team room at 8:45am for a 9:30am ish start. 30sec interval starts.
