With Summer drawing to a close, a change of pace is noticed in the training of a competitive skier; and I am no exception to this rule. As far as the physical training goes, the ending of summer signals a switch to more ski specific training, away from biking and running, and towards activities such as rollerskiing and ski bounding. Mentally, with respect to training, the fall is a time of excitement (yes! the ski season is getting closer!), a time to refocus on getting in the best quality training possible, and a time to look back at the summer and decide what can be learned from the last long months of training.
