Video evidence

Just a few films of the training we have been up to. For the most part these are for the athletes and coaches to review, but I thought the greater public might enjoy seeing some of what we've been up to this fall IN MOTION.

V1 drills, Plains Road

Some easy repeats up a long hill focusing on smooth glide and good body position while climbing. We warmed up with some no-pole skating before going up the hill three times; twice with only one pole, and a third time with both

L3 Skate Intervals, Brown's Bridge

A warm-up of skating drills followed by some level 3/Theshold intervals. Focus was on smooth skiing, good transitions and appropriate pacing

3k Test

Some exciting and sometimes humorous footage from the 3k running test. Individual champs were Blaine Ayotte and Erin Perryman.

DP Test

Clips from the uphill double pole test at Brown's Bridge. This is about 3/4 of the way into the test so everyone is pretty tired...good for figuring out where your weaknesses are and what breaks down when fatigue sets in!

Irish Settlement Classic Intervals

A mix of classic and doublepole intervals at Irish Settlement Road, a really nice stretch of hilly terrain in the nearby town of Pierrepont.
