Hello Team,

Great work to everyone who came out to the time trial on the weekend.  It is great to get the body starting to move fast.  We will have two more rollerski time trials in the next month–great opportunities to build upon what you did well, or to improve on what you were not satisfied with.

Special training opportunities coming up to mark on the calendar:
October 11- 6:00-7:00 -> 3,000M run with Foothills and XC Bragg Creek at the Nakoda Elementary Tack
October 14- 9:00-12:00 -> Bow Valley Campground Sprints

Time trials and test events are great opportunities to push yourself and try new tactics without the added stress of races that have trials or qualification aspects attached to it.  Remember, we can only improve with things that we practice.

For those of you who have not had a Scatt session this month, pease use this link to sign up (TTS-Dev athletes be sure not to double book yourself with Chelsea strength!).

Note for parents- Monday Sep 18 @ 7pm @ BWTC will be the special AGM to approve the financials from last year.  If you are able, please attend so we can be sure to make quorum.  It should be a quick meeting.

Training this week:

Monday(18)
Multi/Primo/TTS-Dev
4:45-6:30*  Zone 4 Ski striding intensities up the gap.  Meet in front of the BWTC. These intensities are a great opportunity to really settle into your Z4 pace and feel some great technique.  With the long run back down, we will likely go over our usual 6:15 finsh, but not more than 6:30.

Tuesday(19)
Primo/TTS-Dev
4:45-6:45 Strength and Skate rollerski with sprints. U18 in the gym first, U16 rollerski first.  Meet in front of the BWTC

Wednesday(20)
Multi/Primo/TTS-Dev
4:45-6:45 Distance run. Meet at Millennium Park with your drink belt and a bar. We will run nice and continuously today in a comfortable Z2 breaking into groups to ensure you are going the proper Z2 pace.
