TBT - Found while spring cleaning the clubhouse: pieces of LSC history. 📼 From the old Loveland Basin Racing Club thank-you sign, to a 1978 Top Dog Ski Derby poster with 500 entrants and top junior racers from a four-state area, to our 60th Anniversary Derby sign. Decades of Colorado ski racing, right here.

🐾 It’s National Dog Day, and Loveland Ski Club would be a mess without our unofficial coaching staff.
George — Head of Slope Safety, US Ski & Snowboard Patrol (Self-Certified). North of 100 lbs and knows exactly how much room that buys him. Works every condition, takes zero notes, has never needed to.
Brodie — Freeride Specialist, Certified in Everything, Verified in Nothing. No official USSS division covers what he does out there. Honestly, they should make one.
Jasper — Director of Athlete Experience, FIS Certified Good Boy. Shows up every training day with the kind of energy the rest of us are still trying to fake by 8am. Has never DNF’d.
Honorable mention to Fred, VP of Standards & Compliance, who is not technically a dog but has earned his spot with the big dogs. Attendance is optional. Standards are non-negotiable.
Happy national dog day!!! 🐶 🐕 🎿

Week 4: Cardio & Course Visualization
This week is about building your engine and sharpening your mind — two different kinds of training that both matter come race day.
🏃 Daily Mini Cardio: 15-30 minutes of sustained cardio every day — run, bike, swim, row, hike, rollerblade, your choice. Keep your heart rate moderately high — working, but still able to talk. Don’t skip the 5-minute warm-up and cool-down.
🧠 Course Visualization Challenge: Remember a course from last season, or build your own. Draw it out on paper, a whiteboard, or set it up outside with cones or water bottles. Then visualize it — move through the body positions you’d be in at each section, start to finish. Notice the terrain changes, snow conditions, wind. Time yourself: how close to real speed can you ‘ski’ it in your mind?

Week 3: Preparedness — Rest & Recovery
This week isn’t about pushing harder, it’s about recovering right. Sleep is where your body actually adapts and gets stronger — not in the workout itself.
😴 Sleep Challenge: Go to bed 5-10 minutes earlier each night this week. Put screens away, stretch, drink water, and let your body slow down before rest. Teens 13-19 need a minimum of 8-9 hours of quality sleep per night. Notice what routine makes you feel best.
🎲 Dryland Challenge: Roll the Dice Circuit
Pick 6 bodyweight exercises (or use ours: push-ups, squats, lateral lunges, tricep dips, jumping jacks, walking lunges).
Roll 1 = reps per exercise (roll x 5)
Roll 2 = rest between exercises (roll x 10 sec)
Roll 3 = total sets
No dice? Use playing cards or a random number generator.
Complete once this week, then make it your own.
5th Annual Jelly Bean Field Day is coming! 🍬🏔️ Sunday, September 13 at Stagecoach Field in Evergreen, 9-11am for registered LSC families.

Week 2: Body Awareness
This week is about knowing where your body is in space, on and off snow.
Work through 5-10 minutes a day:
Cartwheels (both directions), round-offs, handstands, headstands, forward and backward rolls, tumbling, balance beam, slackline, and object-to-object jumping — inspect your line before you go.
New to these? Start slow, ask questions. Martial arts and dance build this same skill.
Then, once a day: box breathing.
Inhale 4 sec, hold 4 sec, exhale 4 sec, hold 4 sec. Repeat 5 times.
Notice — did it connect you to your body? Was control easy or hard? Adjust the count to whatever fits you. No right answer here, just exploration.
