Training 4/28 - One more week of chill!

4/29/2025

0 Comments

 
Hope you all had a fantastic weekend and enjoyed the weather!

This is the last week or chill training as we'll be headed into the official start for the 2025-26 season next week!


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.)

There is also TONS of snow and it's a great idea to get on your skis. Spring skiing, especially crust skiing, is a gift to us and allows us to gain valuable ski skills when others are already on their rollerskis! They are still grooming Happy Jack, probably not for long, or go do some plowing through deep snow in the Snowies or Chimney Park. We are also hoping crust skiing is in our future

We will start with some chill yoga this week, to help with that eustress and make us all happy to see each other!

Team Training:
Tuesday:
  • 4:45pm, Corbett Gym, Core & Yoga

  • Have fun!

Congratulations to everyone who raced at the Super Tour! Across the continent from to Colorado to Maine! We had some ups and some downs as people struggled to recover from Finals but we got it done! Great job everyone!

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. All those things are helpful and fun if you get some training in first! If you want to get all tuned up for the upcoming season you'll need to do some work!
