Cross Country Skier Things

May is nearly at a close along with the first full month of preparation for winter 2014-2015. I am still unsure of exactly what this coming season (Sooner than you think!) will bring, but I am training hard for it none the less. Since the bulk of my racing will be with of the University of New Hampshire on the college carnival circuit, I have had to alter my training from previous seasons to accommodate racing in the classic style and taking classes full time.

This means lots of training hours over the summer to keep my yearly hours progressing. I am also able to add more variation to my training, adding workouts like classic style bounding, classic rollerski intervals and more speeds for cross country sprint racing. I am taking a break from my rifle right now as a means of clearing my head and making a fresh start. I must admit that it is nice to not be tied to a biathlon range for interval and easy combination training. Bottom line: cross country skiing is waayy simpler than Biathlon.  


I am excited to be joining a very strong team this fall and I am doing all I can to be prepared to do my best for my teammates this winter.
