By on 1 March, 2015 in BKL Jackrabbits, BKL Race Blog, BKL Training Schedule, Masters Blog, Masters Training Schedule

Tuesday  3/3 classic skiing.

PENGUINS WILL BE ON THURSDAY THIS WEEK INSTEAD OF TUESDAY

BK: Meet inside to get your skis waxed – most of the kids are getting quite good at doing this themselves now but parent helpers are welcome and encouraged. BK will be focusing on some final prep for the BK Festival!  BK Racing Team: Start off with two laps of the short loop – NO POLES.

Masters: We will follow up on tempo changes that we did a couple of weeks ago and work on terrain based transitions along with just getting in some good skiing

Thursday 3/5 Skate Skiing

BK: Easy fun day with some games.  We want you to feel rested and fired up for the Festival.

Masters: Relays – please signup for inside the Walker Building when you arrive.  Random  3-person teams (one from each group) for a fun and completely NOT serious relay.

 

Highland Lodge – on for Sunday 3/1!

The Highland Lodge trip is a go for Sunday (tomorrow)! The shuttle leaves Craftsbury at 9:30am – the Center asks that we’re ready to go at 9:15. We have a count of about 12 so far. If you haven’t contacted Rick or Anna but want to go, please let one of them know to ensure there’s room in the shuttle: anna.r.schulz@gmail.com or rtcostanza@gmail.com.

Highland Lodge ski this weekend

By on 27 February, 2015 in BKL Race Blog, BKL Training Schedule, Junior Blog, Masters Blog, Masters Training Schedule

We’re hoping to get together a crew to ski from Highland Lodge to Craftsbury this weekend, most likely on Sunday (3/1). For those of you who haven’t done it, it’s a great ski. A Craftsbury van shuttles you out to Highland Lodge in Greensboro and then you ski back. The shorter route is a bit under 20k, the longer route is 25k+, but of course you can make it even longer than that if you choose! It’s not supposed to be super cold, which would be nice. If you’re interested in joining, please email Anna (anna.r.schulz@gmail.com) and let her know (also let her know if you have strong feelings about going tomorrow over Sunday). Families, etc., are of course welcome. We need to get a sense of numbers so we can make sure the Center has enough transportation for us. Anna will get the interested crew in touch with each other to arrange possible carpools. Thanks!

BK and Masters this week 2/22-2/28

By on 22 February, 2015 in BKL Jackrabbits, BKL Race Blog, BKL Training Schedule, Masters Blog, Masters Training Schedule

Since many of our families are off traveling for the week of school break we have decided that there will be no BK ski practices this week but there will be 6PM Masters skiing at the range as usual. 3:30 Masters skiers are welcome to ski with the 6 PM group. We encourage all BK skiers to get out and ski with family and friends this week. Maybe try some back-country or head to the slopes for some alpine or tele-skiing.  Recharge your batteries and come back next week with lots of energy as we get ready of the 2015 BK Festival. The theme this year is “The Spirit of Winter.” Get creative and have some thing to wear at the BK Festival parade of athletes! SEE BELOW TO SIGN UP TO HElP WITH LUNCHES AND POTLUCK AT THE FESTIVAL!!!
