The U.S. Cross Country Ski Team kicked off the 2010 Olympic season in Beitostoelen, Norway Saturday with Kikkan Randall and Kris Freeman leading the way for the U.S., finishing 21st and 22nd, respectively.
Situated about 220km in the north-west of Oslo at the foot of the Jotumheimen Mountain, the venue presents itself with a good amount of snow.
In less than 4 minutes, world records were broken and history was made as two US Biathletes, Jennifer Wygant and Zachary Hall, skied their way to victory in the first annual SkiErg World Sprints.
The goal of level five training defined this way is mostly neuromuscular. By training at a pace somewhat faster than race pace, but where you can still work for some time with consistent technique, you improve your efficiency at and above race pace.
It is less than a week until the Yellowstone Ski Festival, and this will be the best year yet! The Rendezvous Ski Trails are currently set with both classic and skate lanes and we are skiing in town!
The 77-year-old Olympic medalist in cross country skiing passed away at his home in Duluth, Minnesota last Saturday. He lost his battle with cancer.
Skiers talk a lot about training levels, usually numbering them one through five, but, if my experience over the past decade and a half is any indication, truly understanding when and how to use the various levels is rare.
The past weekend, the World Cup athletes were comparing their current shapes in several FIS races in the North of Europe: Beitostoelen, Bruksvallarna, and Muonio.
Now we have a good week of training leading into the World Cup races here next weekend. It is a great thing to not have to pack up the wax room, the rooms and get in the van to drive after a three day weekend of racing.
