We've got snow falling in Saskatchewan this week! ❄️ Last week, 53 athletes, 7 coaches, and lots of helpful parents were able to get on snow over a week early at the 2024 CCS Snow Camp in Lake Louise. Lots of kilometers skied with friends, fresh snow, fun activities on and off the trail, and a practice race made for a great camp. There were 8 different ski clubs represented, which is great to see. We're almost ready for the first ski races of the season!
60 athletes and 11 coaches from Manitoba and Saskatchewan gathered in Moose Mountain Provinci al Park last weekend for a collaborative dryland training camp to prepare for the upcoming cross country ski season. Thanks to all who came from near and far, and contributed to a memorable weekend! It was a weekend of contrasts, as Saturday was one of the windiest days in memory. Despite the extreme conditions, we were still able stay active and safe during 3 training sessions on Saturday, although not many photos were taken. 🌬😵‍💫 The resolve and determination required on Saturday was rewarded on Sunday, as conditions calmed, the sun came out and participants were treated to a beautiful fall day. Athletes skate rollerskied with power and high tempo in a sprint simulation around the campground race course and added some more kilometers on their rollerskis, before saying "Good Byes!" and heading home.

"Damp but happy" sums up the first full day in the Ottawa/Gatineau Region for Team Sask at Nordiq Canada Ski Nationals. Today was the Official Training Day to give the athletes and coaches a chance to ski the race courses before the racing begins tomorrow, with an Interval Start Free Technique race. 16 Sask athletes racing from U16 to U20, plus 3 Sask "alumni". We refueled in the afternoon by visiting a cabane a sucre for a french-canadian traditional. Beans, potatoes, sausage, bacon, pancakes and maple syrup for supper! 🍁
