Ski at Sunbowl & Strength

We had a nice morning up at the Sunbowl with everyone getting out for 45 mins to an 1:30 on skate skis. There’s some nice terrain up on the mountain for us to ski without climbing straight up the alpine area and several people on the team checked out the nordic trails which are skiable, but still need a little more snow before we can call them “race ski worthy” conditions. After practice everyone grabbed lunch in the dining hall, headed to classes until 5:10pm and then hit the weight room for strength & floor core and a fun warmup game in the gym.
