First, the training plan for the coming week (7/23 – 7/29). This coming week we will focus on speed. We will do a number of workouts that include short periods of work above race pace. This past week we focused on moderate- and high-intensity workouts, which included longer durations near or at race pace.
Monday 7/23: 8:30-10:30am at the Range. SKATE rollerski + speed and specific strength.
Wednesday 7/25: 8:30-10:30am at CVUHS. Running/bounding + speed and strength.
Thursday 7/26: 5:00-7:00pm at the Range. Classic rollerski + speed.
Friday 7/27: (bonus training!) 9:00-11:00am at Colchester High School. Erin Mallory will lead a workout called “Save the baby king”.
Saturday 7/28: 9:00-11:00am at “Our Lady of Mt Carmel Church” along Spear St in Charlotte, VT. Long classic rollerski.
This morning we rollerskied north of Burlington, with a big group of athletes and parents. All together, we had 23 athletes, 5 parents and the coaching staff! The parents either went running or cycling while we did a classic ski. After a warmup, the crew did a time-trial that was either 3 miles or 4 miles in length. The course profile was mostly gradual climbing.
This is a workout to test fitness and to give everyone an opportunity to get a steady workbout at high intensity. Rollerski speeds can vary greatly (several minutes on a course this long), so it isn’t very effective to compare times against another athlete. As long as everyone pushed hard and stayed safe, then they achieved the main goals. Results are down below…
This afternoon, MNC Coach Rick Costanza (he runs all of our BKL and Masters’ programs) and I led a small Intro to Rollerski clinic at CVUHS. We had just a handful of kids and parents, but it was still a beautiful day to be out. We set up some obstacles and slalom courses and the kids did great.
