Be sure to slow down again after the 10-15 seconds. Alternately you could ski-bound with poles for 10-15 seconds. </span></span></span></p>\r\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Toss in some “double poling”, lunges, straight leg marching, skipping, backwards walking ( or jogging) or anything else you can think of.

Each week we have a different way of incorporating intensity, either a natural interval circuit or prescribed intervals, the difficulty increasing as we approach the ski season.

More is not always better. In fact, working at a high level week after week is a sure way to burn out. If you need to go to bed when you get home, and don’t feel up to any exercise the next day, you have overreached. If you return home feeling the workout was too easy, go harder next time!

#000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">It’s important to warm up gradually, especially as we get older. Start slowly in zone 1-2,  ski-striding with poles. This is not a group run, a tempo workout, and especially not a race. </span></span></span></p>\n<span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Be able to chat. Work up a light sweat only, and save your big bucks for the hill workout.. If you feel your group is too slow or too fast, feel free to switch groups or simply do your own workout. </span>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #000000; text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"https://triathlete-europe.competitor.com/2012/05/17/train-slow-run-fast\"><b>https://triathlete-europe.competitor.com/2012/05/17/train-slow-run-fast</b></a></span></span></span></span></p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">After 10 min of easy ski-walking, throw in some sprints without poles, 10-15 seconds “all out” - with quick feet.. Be sure to slow down again after the 10-15 seconds. Alternately you could ski-bound with poles for 10-15 seconds. </span></span></span></p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Toss in some “double poling”, lunges, straight leg marching, skipping, backwards walking ( or jogging) or anything else you can think of. The idea is to get warmed up and limbered up, but not to arrive back tired or red in the face. </span></span></span></p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\">**********************************************************************************************************</p>\n<span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Strength:</b></span></span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> This will often be a circuit, and will change slightly each week, gradually getting more difficult and longer. </span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>RUN</b></span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> to the next station quickly and be ready to start the next exercise </span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>BEFORE YOU HEAR “GO</b></span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\">”. Several of the exercises are there to keep us warm when the weather gets cooler; rope skipping, jumping jacks and high knee running. Feel free to do these vigorously! </span></span></span></span>\n\n*********************************************************************************************************\n\n<span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Technique Drills:</b></span></span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> Just like it sounds.Ski Striding in the fall and classic or skate skiing when the snow arrives.\n</span></span></span></span>\n\n*********************************************************************************************************\n\n<span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><b>Main Set - Hillwork :</b></span></span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> Here is where you can challenge yourself. Each week we have a different way of incorporating intensity, either a natural interval circuit or prescribed intervals, the difficulty increasing as we approach the ski season. Each person should work at her own level. Talking is not recommended except on the recovery intervals (when there are prescribed intervals). The idea is to work at the specified intensity </span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><b>WITH PERFECT SKI TECHNIQUE</b></span></span></span><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"> for a certain amount of time. When your technique falters you are finished the workout! And if you are just walking or running with poles, it doesn’t count ! Here is what ski striding/ski-bounding looks like:\n</span></span></span></span>\n\n<strong><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzlGkpAL5ec\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LzlGkpAL5ec</span></span></span></span></a></span></strong>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Monitor YOUR level of exertion rather than keeping up with someone who is interesting to talk to. More is not always better. In fact, working at a high level week after week is a sure way to burn out. If you need to go to bed when you get home, and don’t feel up to any exercise the next day, you have overreached. If you return home feeling the workout was too easy, go harder next time! Our group has a huge range of of age and experience, from Ironwomen to new or non-runners, and an impressive variety of strengths and abilities. Consider this part of the workout an individual activity.</span></span></span></p>\n<p lang=\"en-US\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Times New Roman,serif;\"><span

timely workouts for that week will be posted on the website . We can arrange a group meeting for those who wish to have help personalizing the plans.\r\n\r\n3.    There will be 3 or 4 casual and fun time trials.\r\n\r\n4.    There will be one (or more)all-day clinic (including both skate and classic) at Nakkertok in January.\r\n\r\n5.    An epic ski is planned for Dec 27, in lieu of a workout.  In addition to scenery and a party afterwards, there will be components of a workout embedded into the long ski. Potluck to follow at my house.\r\n\r\n6.     There is a $15.00 fee to join, (enough to cover  website costs, keep my coaching credentials up to date and purchase small amounts of equipment).  After some deliberating, I have decided not to be “locked in” by charging  for each workout. <strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">However if anyone  misses a total of 3 Friday workouts, then there will be a $10 penalty fee for any workout missed after that. </span></strong> If anyone misses 3 Fridays in a row and is not ill or traveling, they will be asked if they want to continue with the group.   Members are welcome to bring a guest, but the guest  must pay $10.  If you know you will be missing many of the sessions, please consider whether you really want to join this group.\r\n\r\n7.     Membership for Friday Dryland and Ski Training will be capped at around 20, with first dibs to those who participated in the dryland and ski training last year.  If a member offers some skills which I can use I may accept one or two more!\r\n\r\n8.     Each participant is required to contribute volunteer time and effort on behalf of the group.  See the  <a href=\"https://www.sofits.ca/co-op\">CO-OP</a>  link for some ideas.','ABOUT THIS YEAR','','publish','closed','closed','','for-this-year','','','2013-11-18 13:36:49','2013-11-18 18:36:49','',0,'https://sofits.ca/?p=542',0,'post','',0),(543,7,'2013-09-26 20:54:45','2013-09-27 00:54:45','Specific dates for the entire season are listed under WEEKLY GROUP TRAINING.\r\n\r\n1.    The 22 week season is  periodized to peak and end in early February.  It will build from week to week.  Although training ends in mid February, there will likely be at least 6 more weeks of great skiing after that for group outings.\r\n\r\n2.    Each weekly workout and a generic plan of other timely workouts for that week will be posted on the website .

And the noise will drive your friends to distraction.  The exception to this is a dedicated pair of high quality waxless skis chosen specifically for your body weight,  to be used  when conditions are above zero and waxing is tricky.\r\n\r\n2. Garage sale skis are not recommended!!!\r\n\r\n3. Use a dedicated ski shop such as Fresh Air (always my first choice).  They will be sure to fit you with skis of the correct camber, and poles of the correct length.   Avoid generic sports stores or downhill stores such as Tommy and Lefevre (spelling?) etc.   Pecco\'s, although it has good equipment and knowledgeable staff,  is famous for NOT standing behind their products after the sale.\r\n\r\n4. Always keep your old skis for \"rock skiing.   One can never have too many skis!   If they have really poor, antiquated bindings, consider upgrading the bindings to match your new boots, so that you have excellent control on both your rock skis and good skis.\r\n\r\n5. Combi boots are great, especially for control on downhills, or if you have balance problems, or a history of hamstring injuries.  However, DO NOT consider buying combi skis.   They are poor for both classic and skating.   You will need dedicated skis and poles for both classic and skating.\r\n\r\n6. If you are prone to cold hands, you may want to consider the wide, fancier (and more expensive) velcro grips which tend not to cut off circulation.  Be sure to try them out with the gloves or mitts you will be wearing, especially if you will be wearing thick ones.\r\n\r\n7.  Set up a waxing area ahead of time, if you have space to do this.   Then you will be ready to head out the door at the last moment.\r\n\r\nAny more suggestions people want to add?','READY, SET SKI!','','inherit','open','closed','','746-revision-v1','','','2013-12-02 10:17:58','2013-12-02 15:17:58','',746,'https://sofits.ca/2013/12/02/746-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(898,7,'2013-12-02 10:18:46','2013-12-02 15:18:46','<a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Nov-28-Ridge-Swamp.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-891\" alt=\"Nov-28-Ridge-Swamp\" src=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Nov-28-Ridge-Swamp.jpg\" width=\"700\" height=\"443\" /></a>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n12:45    Location will be decided on Thursday evening.\r\n\r\nIf you are a slower skier and/or need to use the washroom before skiing, and/or need to chat in the parking lot, please arrive in the parking lot at 12:30.    Rather than congregating in the parking lot, consider skiing!!   Ski to where we are meeting,  ski without poles,  and be sure your wax is working, until the practice begins.\r\n\r\n[yop_poll id=\"27\"]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','TRAINING DEC. 6 ','','inherit','open','closed','','890-revision-v1','','','2013-12-02 10:18:46','2013-12-02 15:18:46','',890,'https://sofits.ca/2013/12/02/890-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(899,7,'2013-12-02 10:19:24','2013-12-02 15:19:24','New PDF is posted under <em>training plans and waxing</em>.   Thanks Ila, for gathering all the info and putting it together.','WAXING PDF','','inherit','open','closed','','895-revision-v1','','','2013-12-02 10:19:24','2013-12-02 15:19:24','',895,'https://sofits.ca/2013/12/02/895-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(900,7,'2013-12-02 10:19:57','2013-12-02 15:19:57','An updated PDF is posted under <em>training plans and waxing</em>.   Thanks Ila, for gathering all the info and putting it together.','WAXING PDF','','inherit','open','closed','','895-revision-v1','','','2013-12-02 10:19:57','2013-12-02 15:19:57','',895,'https://sofits.ca/2013/12/02/895-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(901,7,'2013-12-02 10:22:20','2013-12-02 15:22:20','','ski waxing notes 2013','','inherit','open','closed','','ski-waxing-notes-2013','','','2013-12-02 10:22:20','2013-12-02 15:22:20','',319,'https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/ski-waxing-notes-2013-.pdf',0,'attachment','application/pdf',0),(902,7,'2013-12-02 10:23:28','2013-12-02 15:23:28','Here are the preliminary documents from the first workshop.    A couple more  to come.\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/ski-waxing-notes-2013-.pdf\">Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Ski Waxing</a>(updated Dec 2 2013)</strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/training-hours.pdf\">Training Hours</a>    </strong>Just one sample from Joe Friel (see Reading list in the next article)<strong> </strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Create-Your-Own-Training-Plan.pdf\">Create Your Own Training Plan, part 1</a></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Addtional-Notes-Nov-2nd-Personal-Training-Workshop.pdf\">Additional Notes for Creating Training Plans, part 2</a></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Background-Questions.pdf\">Background Questions</a></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/BASE2-Weeks-of-Oct-21-to-Nov-11.pdf\">BASE2 Weeks of Oct 21 to Nov 11</a></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/BASE3-Weeks-of-Nov-18-to-Dec-9.pdf\">BASE3 Weeks of Nov 18 to Dec 9</a></strong>','TRAINING PLANS & WAXING','','inherit','open','closed','','319-revision-v1','','','2013-12-02 10:23:28','2013-12-02 15:23:28','',319,'https://sofits.ca/2013/12/02/319-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(904,7,'2013-12-02 11:22:42','2013-12-02 16:22:42','','Sharon-weight-shift','','inherit','open','closed','','sharon-weight-shift','','','2013-12-02 11:22:42','2013-12-02 16:22:42','',723,'https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-weight-shift.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(905,7,'2013-12-02 11:23:19','2013-12-02 16:23:19','','Sharon-legs-toghether-phase','','inherit','open','closed','','sharon-legs-toghether-phase','','','2013-12-02 11:23:19','2013-12-02 16:23:19','',723,'https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-legs-toghether-phase.jpg',0,'attachment','image/jpeg',0),(906,7,'2013-12-02 11:23:33','2013-12-02 16:23:33','If you can, watch Sharon in slow motion.  Below the video are two stop frames showing two things everyone should aim for.

They should be just slightly more bent, and should both pass the hips at each stride.  Upper back could be more relaxed.  Hips can be slightly more forward, ahead of your heels.  Great skiing, Sharon!\r\n\r\n[video width=\"640\" height=\"480\" mp4=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/sharon-in-slo-mo_x264.mp4\"][/video]\r\n\r\n[video width=\"640\" height=\"480\" mp4=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Sharon4_x264.mp4\"][/video]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-weight-shift.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-904\" alt=\"Sharon-weight-shift\" src=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-weight-shift.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" /></a>\r\n\r\n(perhaps should have said \"provided the boot is off the snow\".   The tip of the ski will be touching of course.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-legs-toghether-phase.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-905\" alt=\"Sharon-legs-toghether-phase\" src=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-legs-toghether-phase.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" /></a>\r\n\r\nBelow you can see Janey\'s admirably coordinated and relaxed \"skiing\".  Great timing, good body position and poling.

earlier you can tinker with your wax, if necessary.   Bring a range of wax with you.     I\'ll try to post some wax advice in the morning, when I see what kind of temperatures we are actually going to

18:15:12','2013-12-09 23:15:12','We will be incorporating skate workouts into the mix, as promised, but not this week (too cold).   I\'m leaning to this format, but have several other ideas as well:\r\n\r\n<strong><em>Friday morning:  skate instruction (will cancel if  temperatures are too cold to skate).  It will start at 10:00 or so, with 90 minutes of easy drills at P8 for those who are new or relatively new to skating.  If you are also attending the afternoon session, bring a bag lunch to eat at my house or at the visitor\'s center (or buy lunch).  </em></strong>\r\n\r\n<strong><em>Friday afternoon:  classic workout (will switch to skate if conditions are poor for classic).   This will be a heavy duty workout for the more serious among us.  For those who have done skating in the morning, a second  option is to go for a group ski and accumulate some mileage without undo stress and fatigue. </em> </strong>\r\n\r\nI\'m going to post a few polls in a bit.  In the meantime, let me know your thoughts on this.  Is this a good format, or should we switch it around each Friday with classic in the morning on alternate Fridays?    How many of you do not skate at all?  (if not, you really should consider it.  Christmas is around the corner.)   I\'ll start a Facebook thing going for discussion.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n&nbsp;','FUTURE FRIDAYS:  SKATE

for that run?  )</strong></em>\r\n\r\nBorn to Run - McDougall  (loved this book, it kindled an urge to resume  running  after being injured)\r\n\r\nEat and Run - Jurek ( same characters, different author,  seemed like  a companion book to Born to Run)\r\n\r\nWhy I Run - Sutcliffe (local journalist, enthusiastic and self-styled -\"ordinary\" runner.)\r\n\r\nRunning with the Mind of Meditation - Mipham (interesting ideas about the different stages runners go through)\r\n\r\nThe Grace to Race - Sister Madonna Buder (not a literary masterpiece but an inspiring tale  of the octogenarian nun who competes in Ironmen.)\r\n\r\n<em><strong>Books About Training, Exercise, and Aging Well:</strong></em>\r\n\r\nCross Training - Fitzgerald (Thanks Pat - just spent the weekend reading this  - great book!  If you read only one training book, read this.)\r\n\r\nCycling Past 50 - Friel (all of his books are highly recommended, but perhaps this  is most relevant to our group)\r\n\r\nTriathlete\'s Training Bible - Friel\r\n\r\nCyclists\'s Training Bible - Friel\r\n\r\nTotal Heart Rate Training - Friel\r\n\r\nRun: Running by Feel - Fitzgerald (many AHA! moments in this book, but learn to train before you read it).\r\n\r\nYounger Next Year: Crowley (lots of sensible advice, easily read, thanks Susan!)\r\n\r\nWhich Came First Cardio or Weights - Hutchison (a myth buster)\r\n\r\nThe Cure for Everything - Caulfield (in the same vein as the previous book, but not just exercise)\r\n\r\n<em><strong>Food and Healthy Eating:</strong></em> Many of these books are from opposing corners of the kitchen, so to speak, but it was interesting to see what they actually agreed on!\r\n\r\nThe Omnivore\'s Dilemma - Pollan (the book that launched me on this journey - a must read!  I love his writing. Thank you Susan)\r\n\r\nThe China Study - Campbell\r\n\r\nWhat to Eat - Nestle ( a thorough  analysis - usually scathing -  of all the food you will encounter in a food store.)\r\n\r\nDiet For a Small Planet - Lappé ( not a new book - you either have read this or must read it)\r\n\r\nWhy We Get Fat ( you don\'t want to know what you are eating)\r\n\r\nEat and Run - Jurek\r\n\r\nPaleo Diet - Cordain/Friel\r\n\r\nFood Rules -  Pollan (a simple guide to eating healthily)\r\n\r\nWheat Belly - Davis\r\n\r\nCooked - Pollan (thanks again, Susan, an inspiring and entertaining book! ).\r\n\r\nWild Fermentation - Katz (how to bring healthy microbes back into our modern lives)\r\n\r\n<em><strong>Nature and Health</strong></em><em><strong>  </strong></em>We all know that exercise is more fun outdoors.  These two books confirm just HOW important it  is to our health.\r\n\r\nThe Nature Principle - Louv (\"why we need a botanical sense of place\", \"what if we take pride in our diverse and fascinating bioregion\", \"knowing who you are by where you are\" - \"the garden creates the gardener \". This book offers hope in the face of all the terrible things that are happening to our natural world.\r\n\r\nYour Brain on Nature - Selhub/Logan (scientific evidence for things you already know from experience).','LINKS & BOOKS','','publish','open','closed','','links-to-skiing-and-related-information','','','2019-09-14 10:35:16','2019-09-14

)</strong></em>\n\nBorn to Run - McDougall  (loved this book, it kindled an urge to resume  running  after being injured)\n\nEat and Run - Jurek ( same characters, different author,  seemed like  a companion book to Born to Run)\n\nWhy I Run - Sutcliffe (local journalist, enthusiastic and self-styled -\"ordinary\" runner.)\n\nRunning with the Mind of Meditation - Mipham (interesting ideas about the different stages runners go through)\n\nThe Grace to Race - Sister Madonna Buder (not a literary masterpiece but an inspiring tale  of the octogenarian nun who competes in Ironmen.)\n\n<em><strong>Books About Training, Exercise, and Aging Well:</strong></em>\n\nCross Training - Fitzgerald (Thanks Pat - just spent the weekend reading this  - great book!  If you read only one training book, read this.)\n\nCycling Past 50 - Friel (all of his books are highly recommended, but perhaps this  is most relevant to our group)\n\nTriathlete\'s Training Bible - Friel\n\nCyclists\'s Training Bible - Friel\n\nTotal Heart Rate Training - Friel\n\nRun: Running by Feel - Fitzgerald (many AHA! moments in this book, but learn to train before you read it).\n\nYounger Next Year: Crowley (lots of sensible advice, easily read, thanks Susan!)\n\nWhich Came First Cardio or Weights - Hutchison (a myth buster)\n\nThe Cure for Everything - Caulfield (in the same vein as the previous book, but not just exercise)\n\n<em><strong>Food and Healthy Eating:</strong></em> Many of these books are from opposing corners of the kitchen, so to speak, but it was interesting to see what they actually agreed on!\n\nThe Omnivore\'s Dilemma - Pollan (the book that launched me on this journey - a must read!  I love his writing. Thank you Susan)\n\nThe China Study - Campbell\n\nWhat to Eat - Nestle ( a thorough  analysis - usually scathing -  of all the food you will encounter in a food store.)\n\nDiet For a Small Planet - Lappé ( not a new book - you either have read this or must read it)\n\nWhy We Get Fat ( you don\'t want to know what you are eating)\n\nEat and Run - Jurek\n\nPaleo Diet - Cordain/Friel\n\nFood Rules -  Pollan (a simple guide to eating healthily)\n\nWheat Belly - Davis\n\nCooked - Pollan (thanks again, Susan, an inspiring and entertaining book! ).\n\nWild Fermentation - Katz (how to bring healthy microbes back into our modern lives)\n\n<em><strong>Nature and Health</strong></em><em><strong>  </strong></em>We all know that exercise is more fun outdoors.  These two books confirm just HOW important it  is to our health.\n\nThe Nature Principle - Louv (\"why we need a botanical sense of place\", \"what if we take pride in our diverse and fascinating bioregion\", \"knowing who you are by where you are\" - \"the garden creates the gardener \". This book offers hope in the face of all the terrible things that are happening to our natural world.\n\nYour Brain on Nature - Selhub/Logan (scientific evidence for things you already know from experience).','LINKS & BOOKS','','inherit','open','closed','','1054-autosave-v1','','','2019-09-14 10:34:56','2019-09-14 14:34:56','',1054,'https://sofits.ca/2014/01/08/1054-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(1076,7,'2014-01-08 15:01:42','2014-01-08 20:01:42','<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\">SKIING</span></h2>\r\n<a title=\"Musician on Skis photoblog\" href=\"https://musicianonskis.ca/blog\">Jo-Ann\'s photoblog</a>\r\n\r\n<a title=\"XC Ottawa\" href=\"https://www.xcottawa.ca\">XC Ottawa website</a>\r\n\r\n<a title=\"ski conditions\" href=\"https://www.ncc-ccn.gc.ca/places-to-visit/gatineau-park/ski-conditions\">Gatineau Park Ski Conditions</a>, updated daily at 8:30 and 13:30.\r\n\r\n<a title=\"Chelsea weather\" href=\"https://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/qc-59_metric_e.html#detailsf\"><a title=\"binder\" href=\"https://www.xcottawa.ca/articles.php?id=2697\"> XC Ottawa video on applying binder wax</a></a>\r\n<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\">WEATHER</span></h2>\r\n<a title=\"Chelsea weather\" href=\"https://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/city/pages/qc-59_metric_e.html#detailsf\">Environment Canada Chelsea Weather</a>\r\n<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\">General Fitness</span></h2>\r\n<a title=\"binder\" href=\"https://www.xcottawa.ca/articles.php?id=2697\">understanding-your-natural-running-pace</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://runnow.eu/2013/12/training/the-3-best-core-exercises-for-runners_2310\">3 best core exercises for runners</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://runnow.eu/2013/12/training/speed-development-for-distance-runners_2314 \">speedwork for distance runners - especially aging ones</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\" https://www.iawr-connect.com/training/great-news-runners-over-40/\">Great news for athletes over age 40!</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://www.drmirkin.com/fitness/interval-training-for-sports.html\">intervals - going slowly will not increase your speed</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\" https://thesportfactory.com/site/trainingnews/But_I_m_Not_Running_Marathons.shtml\">extra distance for non-marathoners</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://run-fit.com/chin-ups-push-ups-and-hills/\">increase strength without doing weights</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\" https://www.running4women.com/ive-got-a-cold-should-i-run-today?utm_source=Sign-Up.to&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=19663-204083-Newsletter+December+23rd+2013\">I\'ve got a cold should I run today?</a>','LINKS','','inherit','open','closed','','1054-revision-v1','','','2014-01-08 15:01:42','2014-01-08 20:01:42','',1054,'https://sofits.ca/2014/01/08/1054-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(1077,7,'2014-01-08 15:07:40','2014-01-08 20:07:40','<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><span style=\"color: #008000;

Sharon has good weight shift, timing  and an excellent body position.  A couple of small pointers:  the arms are not always consistent. They should be just slightly more bent, and should both pass the hips at each stride.  Upper back could be more relaxed.  Hips can be slightly more forward, ahead of your heels.  Great skiing, Sharon!\r\n\r\n[video width=\"640\" height=\"480\" mp4=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/sharon-in-slo-mo_x264.mp4\"][/video]\r\n\r\n[video width=\"640\" height=\"480\" mp4=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Sharon4_x264.mp4\"][/video]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-weight-shift.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-904\" src=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-weight-shift.jpg\" alt=\"Sharon-weight-shift\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" /></a>\r\n\r\n(perhaps should have said \"provided the boot is off the snow\".   The tip of the ski will be touching of course.\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-legs-toghether-phase.jpg\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-905\" src=\"https://sofits.ca/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Sharon-legs-toghether-phase.jpg\" alt=\"Sharon-legs-toghether-phase\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" /></a>\r\n\r\nBelow you can see Janey\'s admirably coordinated and relaxed \"skiing\".  Great timing, good body position and poling.
