Team training this week

I hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend.

Here is the information for training this week:

Tuesday at 4.00: running and plyometric on Telemark Hill

Thursday at 4:00: running and ski bounding intensity (bring short ski poles to practice)

* we will watch a short video on ski bounding prior to the the start of the warm up.

We will start roller skiing on Saturday in September following the Road Relay this weekend. We will car pool and go roller skiing on the Alaska Highway from the Marsh Lake Marina. 

Some of you have been asking what the Out of Yukon race schedule will looked like for the coming ski season. Here is a tentative schedule to start planning for the fall and winter. The schedule should be finalized in September as it has to be reviewed by the HP Committee and endorsed by the CCY Board before it is confirmed. The same process will apply to the selection criteria which should be available as a draft document later in September. As in previous years, we will have an athlete-parent meeting to review the draft selection document later in September.

Draft Event Schedule (Out of Yukon), tentative until approved.
