Endurance go, go, go

Like every december, we put our focus on endurance in the last two weeks. In our traditional St.-Jakob-weeks we are much x-country skiing, doing hill intervals and also some O-trainings if it is possible concerning the snow. Two weeks ago I trained 17h and last week even 21:20h, which is a personal record I think.
Yesterday I celebrated my 21th birthday, so I made myself a nice present with 21 hours of training on my 21th day of birth. This week will be a semi-easy one before starting our special speed training on 30th december.

Planning weekend for 2010

One week ago we had our planning weekend for the next season in St. Jakob im Walde. The two new coaches enforcing our trainer team - the Swiss Rolf Gemperle as a new nationaltrainer and the second junior trainer Libor Zrídkavésely from the Czech Republic - were also there to introduce theirselves, talk with us, speak about their intentions and of course train together with us. The highlights in orienteering 2010 will be WOC in Trondheim, WUOC in Borlänge and EOC in Primorsko. Things as Jukola, 10Mila, Worldcups and National Championships are on the schedule as well.
