Such amazing skiing happening this weekend and so much grit!  We have officially started our peaking program so things may be changing at times so pay attention and PLEASE don't start new activities!  We only have 3 weeks until state and only 5 weeks until Jr. Nationals.  It is time to start the conversation about getting completely healthy, eating well, resting and focusing your energy where it is needed.  This peaking program works extremely well if you: -  Do the training properly and don't do too much (you will get tired and flat line your racing) -  Do the training properly and don't do to little (you will get sick... again) Monday:  Classic skiing / 30 - 40 min. Active Recovery Tuesday:  Skate Skiing / 1:00 Over Distance Wednesday:  Classic Skiing / 5 x 1 min. Intervals Thursday:  Waxing / 30 min. Run and Stretching Friday:  Leave for Lander at 6:00 am You can find Info on the race here: https://lvhsnordic...
