Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well and have managed to stay warm after skiing.
The plan for tomorrow is the same as for today except the first start will be at 1:00 pm. Check the blog again before you head to the Ski Chalet.
Make sure not to come to the Ski Chalet too early. You should be fine with 1:00 - 1:15 before your actual start. . You should not have to do anything to your skis if they were ready for today and you have not used them today.
Make sure to do a good warm up that will get your ready to go at your race pace soon from the start. It should take you about 40-50 min total to do this. Ski easy for about 15-20 min, then start picking up the pace progressively for 10 min. or until you reach close to your race speed and keep this for a few minutes. After you have done a your warm up, you need to stay active and warm until your actual start.
When it is cold, it is a good idea to put on dry mitts, buff and hat just before you go if your clothes got wet during the warm up.
Let all have warm thoughts! Alain
