Winter Camp

Hey team,

I hope everyone is getting excited - the race season is almost here! A quick update for the winter camp:

The camp will be on December 28th at Highlands. The camp cost is $7 plus a trail ticket (we will buy a group set day-of).

Equipment list:
- skate skis, boots, and poles
- running shoes
- warm ski clothes x2 (one set for the morning, one for the afternoon)
- indoor exercise clothes
- lunch and snacks
- water and/or sport drink
- a watch (and heart rate monitor if you have one)

Here is the general schedule:

Meet at 9am
First workout will start at 9:30am and will be a skate ski (~ 2 hours)
Lunch
Workshop - follow up on goal setting, talk about race strategies
Second workout will be a second skate ski, focusing on agility (downhills and corners) and balance
We will end with some stretching and yoga
Camp will end at 3pm.

Please RSVP to this camp via email to either myself or Scott, or by filling out this survey if you haven't already: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScJXkUojzo89xaIY86xQYWHs97XMM3wqCx7IIxZ6UyBbQWh_g/viewform

To everyone racing this weekend either at Nakkertok or the Yuletide Blast - good luck! Remember to have fun out there - the first race on skis can often feel a bit rusty and off kilter.

If you need a reminder mid race, I recommend finding a spot on the course during the pre-ski where you will smile each time you pass it in the race - the bottom of a hill is always good!

Hope to see you all at the winter camp, but until then - Happy Holidays!
