Just got down from the third glacier camp of the summer.  Weather conditions varied from bright sun, to wind and fog, and even 4 inches of fresh snow.  Very good practice for European winter conditions and Callaghan Valley-esc variety!

This camp was focused on intensity and moderate volume.  I trained 21 hours with two L5 sprint sessions, two strength sessions, two L3 threshold pace sessions and one set of L4 skate intervals.

The varied snow conditions gave me a good chance to test skis.  Together with coach Erik Flora and APUNSC ski tech Casey Fagerquist, we experimented with different binding placements and played with the kick zones on my classic skis.

We’ll be back up at the TTC on Eagle Glacier in two weeks.
