Oct 21-27 Long Endurance Ski + Fun Strength










Wow NINJAS STRIKE AGAIN!!!

What a great weekend. Thank you all for being so attentive, polite and most of all fun!

Training this week:

Monday: Rest or alternate sports
Tuesday: Intervals if possible. Hills could be here. Remember to warm up and cool down.
Wednesday: Rollerski 5:30 - 6:30 then core workout.
Thursday: strength - warm up 10min cool down 10min
Friday: rest or alternate sports 
Saturday: 9am at the palace. I would like to ski right away - do a longer ski with some short bursts like 10secondsx10 and maybe 30secx2 depending on how everyone feels.... and then return to the palace to do a series of fun strength and agility games. Plan to wrap up by 11:30-11:45

PLEASE wear very bright clothing, and a water bottle for the ski as it will be at least 1hr.

I am planning to do the scavenger hunt extravaganza NEXT Saturday.

PARENTS: Gord Salt from Highlands Nordic would love to have a combined practice (up in Highlands but I can ask if that is negotiable). I have a few parents interested - but I would like everyones opinion. It may require some thinking about driving but it would be SO fun for our athletes!
