Winter Solstice & Break

Astronomical winter begins at 10:19 p.m. this Saturday, Dec. 21. The midday sun angle gradually become higher above the horizon over the next six months.

What better way to celebrate then with a ski race in Mora, home of the Vasaloppet.
Today was wonderful. What progress in just three short weeks on skis. I hope everyone is proud of what they've accomplished and motivated for the season ahead. 

Let's not give up your hard fought for gains. If you can't make practices over the next week try and find time to ski. We have many wonderful trails to explore. Riverside, North Loop, Graystone, Quarry park, St. Johns, Wildwood (classic) and Warner Lake (classic). Squeeze in push ups, pull ups and strength work as well:)

The week ahead:

• Captains will be having practice Monday, Tuesday and Thursday mornings, check Insta or send a text to them for more details.
• Team practice and waxing Friday 3:30-5:30. Check back for details.

Monday

WOW!!Thanks to all those making the Saturday morning practice. I’m just getting my toes back;)
These are the practices that help you take that next step forward. When it’s cold like this the skis don’t want to move and everything takes that little bit more effort. Don’t be discouraged if you felt slow it was the snow:) With temps creeping up through next week we’ll feel like rock stars when our glide returns.
Rest up Sunday we have a big week ahead.

Looking ahead:

• We all race twice next week in Mora. Friday and Saturday.
• Secret Santa Thursday
• Brainerd race over break the 28th
• We'll set ski practice dates for winter break
• Maplelag, do you plan on going? 

Thanks again for the extra effort!
See you back at Riverside Monday.
