Hello everyone, congratulation to everyone who took part in the Road Relay last weekend. It sounds like it was a great event.

For team training this week, we will do the following;

Tuesday: running for 1 hr. followed by plyometrics on Telemark Hill  for 45 min.

Thursday: running for 50 min. followed by an intensity workout in zone 3 & 4 (running with poles). Lois will be leading the session as Amanda and Alain will be in Canmore for meetings and JF will be on a school field trip.

Saturday: we will be doing some trail work on the Skyline Trail. We would like to have as many skiers and parents as possible for the day. The plan is to meet in the parking lot of the Ski Chalet at 9 am and divide the group in two, half of the group going to the Fraser Loop side, the other half going to the Fish Lake Road side. Everyone should have the following equipment with them and a lunch as we are hoping to come back at the Ski Chalet for 3 pm. The work will consist mostly in cutting willows, buck brush and branches with manual tools.

Hiking boots, work pants, long sleeve shirt, work gloves, hat and wind breaker. The ski club has a limited number of hand tools available but if you have any of the following (slash axe-pruning shears) please bring them along with you. We will need parents to drive with four wheel drive vehicle to gain access to the Fraser Loop side of the trail and other vehicles to get up the Fish Lake Rd..

See you tomorrow. Alain
