**Mental Training Theme of the week: Fully Connected Focus and Presence


***It is now october and there are still many athletes who do not have roller ski tips

on their poles. Please come to practice prepared with appropriate equipment.

This includes proper pole tips. If you have any questions about this, please feel

free to ask any coach.



1) Sign up for sportlog.ca!

I cannot emphasize the importance of this enough.
Keeping track of your training is essential for both
celebrating improvements and preventing injury.
The code is xcski. Please select Chelsea Nordiq
as your club and Moe, Katie and Eric (biathletes)
as your coaches.

2) Please start brining headlamps to the evening practices as it is getting dark a lot
earlier now.
