Feb 18-24 - Youth Champs!!!



Ok - so here we go!  Youth Championships is on its way!

Monday - Family Day: This is where you school your parents out on the trails if you got a chance!  Racers may have wanted a rest day or alternative sport like snowshoeing and tobogganing!

Tuesday - This is a great day to get out and have a ski if you can. Short intensities and long rests.  Maybe even a hill or two. If you are running - try to log some time going full sprint.

Wednesday - Strength - not so hard that you cannot walk strength. I think a quick workout including core would be great!  Some lunges, step ups, push ups, tricep dips are crucial!
Check this out: Core Blast
