Yesterday the New England team spent the day testing skis, previewing the sprint course, and getting individualized pre-race workouts in. As you can see from the photos, it was another gorgeous day – clear blue skies and temps in the upper 30s/low 40s. The J2s started off the morning with a team jog (above) before breakfast (below).
