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.

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!
