A few weeks ago my ski team and I travelled to the west coast of the island to compete in Ye Olde Christmas races. As always with these trips it was very fun and exciting. We spent a lot of time just hanging around, playing in the snow and racing. It was both a recreational and competitive trip as the whole time wasn’t spent racing.
As I have mentioned before one of my goals is to beat last years times in the races. This year I did three races a 7.5km classic race, a 5km skate race and a 0.8km sprint. In the classic race I managed to beat last years record as I have worked hard on my classic. In the skate race I managed to be only a minute behind last year. Hopefully I can improve by provincials to beat that record and thus complete this goal. As for the sprint, I manage to be a whole 45 second ahead of last year which is quite the accomplishment.
Below is a video highlighting some of the fun we had at Christmas races:
