Week of Dec 16th - Racing has Begun

     

Racing Has Begun

Congrats to Elliot and Sarah for some great racing alongside their older siblings this past weekend at the Candy Cane Cup in Gatineau

Sadly, over the next 24 hours, we will be inundated by some warm wet air, so Hardwood will likely be keeping its trails CLOSED in advance of their first race on Wednesday.

That means this week's practices will be as follows

Tuesday - Strength Training on Zoom

Please join us between 5:20PM and 5:25PM so that we can start at 5:30PM.

Everyone's been doing very well these past few weeks and will work through some more new exercises this week.

BEFORE you start the workout, please make sure of the following:
  • Make sure you have a safe place to perform basic bodyweight exercises
  • Look for an open area 6ft x 8ft on a soft floor (e.g. carpet or mats) that isn't slippery
  • Make sure you work with your parents to test your computer set-up so you can see and be seen, as well as hear and be heard
  • Make sure you have proper athletic clothing and a water bottle
DURING the workout, please have a strong commitment to:
  • Listen to ALL the instructions
  • Try to do ALL the exercises with excellent form
  • Put forth a consistent effort throughout the ENTIRE workout
PARENTS - YOU are encouraged to join in as ALL of these exercises will help YOUR skiing too!

Please be sure you review some of the exercises we will be doing HERE beforehand.

Saturday – Skiing Somewhere Close

As with the last few weeks, we will stay flexible and see how the conditions develop and we'll make a call by Thursday around Noon for our plans for the weekend.

Hardwood will very likely be open this weekend, and hopefully still with a full complement of trails.

There is also the option being floated of traveling to Highlands Nordic south of Collingwood for a low-key race - the Yuletide Blast - that they're hosting.

Stay tuned for more details later this week
