Great racing out there today team. Hopefully you can all think about your day and take away something that you did well, and something that you can do better for tomorrow. We have had lots of traffic training and practice skiing in groups. So you should be ready ski smart and smooth tomorrow.

Arrive at the teamroom to pick up your bib and check in with your coach 1hr and 15 min before your start. All LC/PC/WS, your skis should already be at the teamroom as of 5pm tonight.

Tomorrow: Mass Start Skate Race!
-5 lanes ~100 M long, Double pole only start.
-Access the start by going under tunnel again as you did today. Walk down to mass start area to the left of the biathlon range. You will be marshaled across the lap lane to get to the start to ensure you do not interfere with another race.
