August 10, 2012 (Sweden) – A post from Sweden is coming shortly as I’m almost half-way through the camp and it’s been a great experience. Tomorrow 5×10 minutes classic roller ski intervals, threshold. PM strength and then we’re headed to Torsby for some more tunnel skiing!

In the meantime, here is a small selection of photos taken from Facebook – thanks friends! PLUS check out August on XC Ski Girl… if you’re interested!

Roller ski skate sprint race..... what a fun way to do intervals! Went FIVE times.. prelim, 2 quarterfinals, a semi & final. Each heat had four skiers. Winner of each heat moved up a bracket, last place moved down. Kept the workout super fluid and really fun. Got to work on top speed, race tactics, skiing in a pack © Chandra Crawford
