Here we are in spring - the recovery time for skiers!

What you should be focusing on at this point is FUN and recovery! You should basically only be doing activities that sound fun to you or are eustress (help you in your recovery like yoga, walks, stretching, rolling, etc.)

We will start yoga again this week, to help with that eustress. It's completely up to you what you choose but if you'd like some chill times then join us!

Team Training:
Tuesday: 6pm Zoom Yoga 
Thursday: 6pm Zoom Yoga 

PLAY PLAY PLAY!!!

Team after a fun 3 days of racing on Grand Mesa! Super stoked for such an awesome year of racing!
Wow! What an crazy season of ski racing! We had more challenges than any of us would ever imagine but we made it through and now we are moving into one of my favorite seasons - CRUST SKIING!

This is a great time of the year to really focus in on not only recovering the body, but also recovering the mind. So look at the activities that you enjoy to do and get out there and do those. Start to blend in multiple activities whether it be casual paddling (Canoe or Kayak), easy mountain biking, easy road biking, disc golf, regular golf while walking the course, hiking, rock climbing, Back Country or Alpine Skiing, backpacking, salsa dancing, swimming, snorkling, surfing, ice skating, fly fishing, etc.

Do not worry about any specific training, just have fun enjoying different activities while you are regenerating from the past year's training.

We will be starting over with a new training year in the next couple of weeks. See you then!

What an AWESOME week of racing! Congrats to everyone who raced! HUGE races with incredibly fast skiers!!!
We are on our 3rd peaking week so we'll be taking away a few additional trainings, like morning runs.

REMINDER: 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 3 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

    If do the training properly and don't do too much (you'll get tired and not race to your potential).
    If you do the training properly and don't do too little (you'll get sick!)
