This time of year many racers notice their endurance increasing. Saturday’s ESWG race showed which racers had the slow twitch fibers to race 18KM.
There are 4 Long races left on NYSSRA’s calendar, if you have not tried one before: sign up! It can be tons of fun. This Sunday Saratoga Biathlon will host their Mini marathon 30Km skate, and 15KM short race(register here).
2 weeks away there is the Winona Forest Tourathon: 12.5KM, 25KM, and 50Km classic races, favorable rates for scholastic racers and family discount. This is a great way to get into distance racing.
They have tons of snow and new grooming equipment. (See graphic at top, and more photos here.)http://www.winonaforest.com/
The following day (double header anyone?) The Lake Placid Loppet 25 and 50KM options in both techniques.
