Team training this week

Hello everyone, thank you for all the work on Interval Hill you did on Saturday. That will be exciting to try a more specific form of ski training between now and the on snow ski season.

For training this week, we will be doing the following activities:

Monday at 4:30 in the race Office: We will do some yoga focusing on core strength.

Tuesday from 4:00 - 6:00: We will do some running, some plyometrics and attend the WCCSC Olympic Sign presentation for Dahria on the Olympic trail at 5:30 pm.

Thursday from 4:00 - 6:00: running as well as ski striding intensity on Interval Hill. Bring your classic boots and poles and we will supply rock skis for the intensity portion of the practice.

Saturday from 11:00-1:00: Annual CCY Squad work party to get the ski stadium and the adjacent trails ready for snowmaking in October. More details to follow later this week.

I will be sending individual equipment recommendations this week. Coast Mtn will offer a Squad discount in early Oct. for Squad skiers.

Coming events:

- Oct 2.  at 5:30 pm: CCY High Performance meeting with the Blue Squad skiers and parents to review the draft Selection Criteria document.

- Oct 3. at 7:00 pm: WCCSC AGM in the wax room.

- Oct 6 and 8: No Squad training as it is Thanksgiving weekend
