ANCHORAGE, Alaska — On a sunny afternoon in Kincaid Park, a 1,500-acre public-recreation venue that borders the Anchorage International Airport and Turnagain Arm coast, several World Cup skiers, including three Olympians and three Alaska Pacific University members, took the time to chat on camera on Friday.

Out on the trails before and during training/testing, Kikkan Randall, Liz Stephen, Erik Bjornsen, and Reese Hanneman talk about returning to the U.S., their homecomings and what they’re most excited for at SuperTour Finals and U.S. Distance Nationals — a.k.a. Spring Series.

Races start Saturday with the 10- and 15-kilometer freestyle individual starts. Start list
