Whistler Olympic park rollerski race: rain, lactate and pain.

The last push of the three week training block is over. Today the CVTC-team wrapped it all up with a rollerski race at the Olympic venue. The sprinters did a full sprint race with four rounds playing with different techniques, striding, double poling and so on. What was fastest? We wont tell you, we will show you in the winter! The distance skiers did a freestyle race with individual start over 10km and 15km. All the athletes starts to look a little tired but that’s also the plan right now. Next week is a recovery week and coming back they should be ready to go again. Then we’ll do some more testing again to make sure everyone is heading in the right direction.
