Like last time, we’re looking to quantify somehow the average difference in speed (in sec/km) between classic and skating. Only this time we’re focusing in on sprints. Organizing the times for the heats is a bit of a challenge, so I’m only going to consider the qualification round. So essentially we’re just looking at speed [...] Related posts:Technique Specialization Improved Gällivare Plots: Technique Focus Technique Preferences: Italy

That’s a Wrap… I guess?

I believe when your team mate skis up to you. Pulls a beer out of her vest. And hands it to you. You can call the season done. Pat yourself on the back…. because pieces of you survived that emotional roller coaster they call winter. Although I’m not sure my season really ever got off [...]

I received an email recently from a reader who pointed out to me that Marit Bjørgen completed the 30k classic mass start in Oslo this season in 1:26:09.8, last year at World Championships Therese Johaug did the same course, mass start, skating in only 1:23:45.1, which is only a difference of about 2.8%. Surely, skating [...] Related posts:
