One sunny day in New Zealand we put on lots of sunblock, grabbed our skate skis and headed for the hills. We headed for the farthest-out point on the Snowfarm trail system, paralleling the groomed trail to stay out where the perfectly-smooth crust hadn’t been defaced by the groomer. Soon we were out in the [...]
Got out for some classic speed in Placid today. Championship workout. For words, check out: CXC Elite Blog. All photos: Gus Kaeding.

The connection is pretty obvious, actually. Both are mass start races that involve switching activities at least once during the race. The change in activities is certainly more extreme in triathlon, but you get my drift. Some people (like, say, me) complain on occasion that pursuit races in cross-country skiing place too great an emphasis [...] Related posts:
The CXC Team and I are out in Lake Placid, NY for 17 days of training at the US Olympic Training Center. After a summer of mostly easy-volume training and L3 intervals we finally had the chance to open it up with my favorite workout, on my favorite climb in New York. Outside of Keene, [...]

I arrived in Utah Saturday night for our annual fall training camp. We will be out here for the next three weeks taking advantage of the great venue and warm fall weather. Actually, it feels a lot more like summer out here now with temps reaching 90 today. This is definitely a big contrast to [...]
With more North Americans sojourning over to Europe to participate in high-level European racing that isn’t quite World Cups, I thought it might be interesting to take a closer look at the OPA (or Alpen) Cup and Scandinavian Cup series in a bit more detail. As the name might imply, the Scandinavian Cup races are [...] Related posts:
But we’ve been busy. This fall we’ve had a trio training full-time for skiing, most folks running XC and a pair zipping through the pool (an exciting first for the program!). It makes for small groups at training sessions most of the time which allows for lots of one-on-one time to work on technique and discuss [...]

I normally don’t tend to break too much ski equipment but recently though I have been going through a streak of bad luck. My faithful old pair of V-2 920’s that I got in high school finally broke in spectacular fashion. While doing striding speeds one workout I managed to rip the front wheel completely [...]
First things first-I'm back! Back not only to my blog and my western home, but also to training 100%. Recovering from an injury is never easy, but after a couple weeks of careful practice, I've been able to complete all my normal training for the pas...

My real job started up again this week, so there aren’t going to be very many 5-6 post’s per week happening for a while… On Monday I shared some summary statistics on a whole bunch of skiers showing how often they finishing in the top 3, top 5, etc. over their entire careers. The Vuelta [...] Related posts:
