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!
This weekend we'll be doing something a little different, with the Elite Team headed to SOHO and anyone on the Comp team that would like going to the Leadville Loppet. Fun weekend for all! 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

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!
 Such fun at our epic New Years Day ski in a blizzard! Welcome back to many of our college athletes!
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!
Yay! We made it to the Holiday Break!
While it is awesome to go home, visit family and friends, eat great food, sleep tons and generally be lazy this is a very important time for training. If you want to get all tuned up for the upcoming season you'll need to do some work! Everyone will basically be off for the next two weeks and after that the Elite team will be racing every weekend. We will send out weekly training starting the week of January 6th so watch for it! Training for next two weeks: Week of 12/23
We'll then start posting weekly training! If you are in Laramie be sure to let us know so we can add you to the list for training during this time. Natural intervals are a specific type of interval that is variable and fun!Basically as you ski you choose the intervals. You want to mix them up with some steep uphills, some flats, definitely go over the top of every hill. You can even throw in some downhill and gradual downhill for fun.
You ski around the trails and time yourself on the intervals. They can be any length but they need to add up to 12-15 minutes of total hard skiing time. So each interval can be any variation of length but in the end 12-15 minutes of total hard time. HAVE FUN! We finally made it to the end of the semester! Well done!
Now just through this week and we'll be solidly into ski season and winter break. ALL training this week is optional, we want to make sure you are getting what you need for your finals while at the same time providing opportunities for those of you who have much less this week than a usual week! Please note the change in time for Wednesday, we decided not to fight the dark! Here are the training opportunities for this week: MONDAY:
