First Race Of The Season- First Place Of The Season


Classic sprint today- it went very well for almost everyone. Nate was 3rd overall in the open (non-college) division, which was arguably as competitive as the college division, and 1st Junior. Check out these pictures from today!

Happy Thanksgiving!!


The team has been on snow for two days now, and the adjustment period to real skiing has gone extremely well. We have had great weather both days (after driving through a downpour the whole way up from VT) and we have already done some specific strength work, lots of technique work, and some video! The group is a little tired (in a good way) after today's doublepole workout so we are going to have a somewhat lighter day tomorrow in preparation for the weekend of races. They just laid some track outside my window, so it looks like everything should go as planned. Hopefully everyone had a satisfying feast tonight.. we did NOT. The food here leaves much to be desired, but not driving to and from Stoneham every day, showers right after workouts, and beds in between workouts has definitely made it more than worth it.
