Week 38

This week our master and junior plans continue some solid mid-winter training. Looking for ways to improve your downhill technique? Check out Downhill Tips from Erika Flowers for new ideas for speed sessions and race prep. For our masters athletes preparing for World Maters and the Birkie we recommend our second marathon-specific interval session this week. Now that we are entering the heart of the winter competition season remember to keep your easy sessions under control and to always listen to the body. Sometimes cutting out intensity to feel best for the weekend is the most effective strategy to absorb race efforts.
