Training this Week:
Tuesday 1/19: Skate sking and wax clinic. The wax clinic will be for BK Racers, Jack Rabbits aged 11 and older, and parents. We will split our time between skate skiing and waxing. All the Penguins and Jack Rabbits aged 10 years and younger will ski the entire time.
For the wax clinic, please bring your classic skis to practice waxing. Bring your skate skis to ski on!
Thursday 1/21: Duathlon Practice & Classic skiing: Everyone bring both skate skis & poles and classic skis & poles. Get your classic skis waxed up when you get there (or check the blog on Wed night for a wax recommendation). We will classic ski and then practice changing equipment in a transition zone. Wear combi boots or talk to your coach and choose between your skate and classic boots. We will try using just our skate poles and we will try switching poles as well.
