We are all working through an interesting spring but that doesn't mean that you can't start your strength rebalancing! Just get out on the prairie and use those rocks! When you find unique ways to do pull-ups post your ideas in the comments.

 After a truly amazing Nationals, which contained some phenomenal performances, both individually and as a team, we drove back into a new reality. This spring will take some hard work, creativity, and dedication to be successful in school, skiing and LIFE!
As we move forward we want to encourage all of you to reach out to coaches and teammates. We can do this together! We will start our 'group' training on Thursday and we want our team to be the model of social distancing and, probably inevitably, stay at home. Please take this seriously because although you may not get seriously ill from this many people in your lives can become very ill and may die, including your parents, grandparents, aunts/uncles, and others. How you behave will ultimately have a huge impact on their very survival. In order to help you train AND social distance we will be 'meeting' virtually for some workouts and posting the others you should be doing. We will also be creating 'Office Hours' for you to meet with the coaches to chat about training, life, the Universe, and everything! Finally, by the end of this week we will be creating a virtual training game. You will need to create a 'Guild' of 6-10 members for a support network with a team name so start working on that. The training for this time of year is about re-balancing and having fun so you will see a lot of flexibility in your workouts! Here is the training for this week:
 Wow! What a fantastic weekend of racing!
Congrats to Ella & Matt for the wins and to the Mens team both days and the Women for the team win on Saturday.

You main focus this week should be racing but there are several around the edges things that we will need help with so be sure to watch for information and jobs. If you are not racing/don't want to race this weekend be sure to let us know so we can get your help. We have officially started our peaking program so things will change at times so pay attention and please don't start new activities. We only have 5 weeks until Nationals so it's time to start concentrating on staying/getting healthy, eating well, resting and focusing your energy where it is needed! This peaking programs works extremely well if you

Dragon Slaying is going super well! Awesome job on an extremely tough race! That should be the last super long race of the year, unless you choose to do something beasty at the end of the season!

We did some serious Dragon Slayage on Sunday. ROAR!!! Wow! What an amazing weekend of collegiate racing!
A total of 6 (8 if you count Trevor) podiums this weekend! Ella with the Double Win, Kat with a double 2nd, Matt 2nd & 3rd, 3rd & 2nd. We also saw top 5 finishes from Maddy & Nathan in the classic 5km. That wasn't all! EVERYONE finished the 21km freestyle, we had multiple people this the Nationals Qualifying Mark and several managed to qualify for Nationals. Both UW Men & Women took the team titles for the weekend! It doesn't get better than that! We have another long one next weekend, but there is only one race so it should be great! Training for Week:
SLAY THE DRAGON!!! WOW! What an AMAZING weekend of racing! You all ROCKED OUR WORLD!!!!
This week will again be super fun! The Alley Loop is a truly unique and fun race. Also many of you have your first chance to do a 21km skate race! Due to the two very difficult race weekends in a row AND school starting we will be taking it pretty chill this week.
We are ready to ROCK this week. The first USCSA Official Qualifier and the first Competitive Team Race is THIS WEEKEND!!!!
We're all super excited to get our full team on the road and rocking the Rocky Mountain Conference! Here is the training for this week. We'll see you out there! More of our College Peeps are arriving every day! Yay!
 The one day we could see without pounding snow! More of our College Peeps are arriving every day! Yay! This is the training for this week. We will be switching things up a bit as we will start doing on-snow strength to try to transfer our upper body power to something super useful! We are also having a recovery week after 3 weeks of hard skiing!
