Specialized lança a nova Epic World Cup

Nova Specialized Epic World Cup: Máximo de eficiência graças a um sistema de amortecedor exclusivo.

[carussell]

maths time again - xc skiing edition:

there is a total of 345 points left to score in falun (115 in the sprint, 100 in the individual start and 130 in the mass start).

harald currently leads the overall world cup by 157 points. johannes needs to score 52⅓ points more than johannes in every remaining race (on average) to win the overall.

jessie currently leads the overall world cup by 102 points. linn needs to score 34 points more than jessie in every remaining race (on average) to win the overall.

if we only look at the points that will be awarded based on the race result (3x 100 points) and if johannes wins all three races he needs harald to finish no higher than 17th. on the women's side, if linn wins all three races she needs jessie to finish no higher than 9th.

however there are 45 bonus points left on the table: 15 for the sprint qualification and 2x 15 for the bonus sprints in the mass starts. this could obviously mix things up and makes it quite hard to calculate who wins it in the end/who needs which position to win.

also noteworthy: both the sprint and the individual start will be held in classic technique whereas the mass start will be in skating.

tldr: falun will be exciting!

Writing Athletes

@everything.writing on IG

Whether you’re an athletic person who has won multiple awards in sport or is in training for the Olympics or someone who simply just watches sports on TV, sports might be a big part of your life. However, not everyone knows what it’s like to play sports and some of us may be a little more artsy or bookish. Here’s a helpful guide to writing athletes as a high school XC and track runner and lifter.

Sports is a big commitment. This depends on the level of course. Recreational sports might just be a few hours a week but often high school and college teams have practices 5-7 days a week. I remember in cross country and track the practices would be 2 hours after school. XC meets could be 4 hours and track meets could be 6 hours. Those training at the professional level might spend all day training.

It is sometimes hard to balance and sometimes sacrifices need to be made. This is mostly for the higher level athletes. Lots of high school athletes who compete in tournaments need to travel a lot and this means missing school and finding it hard to keep up with the work. Collegiate level athletes might have to sacrifice parties and social life to balance coursework and practices.

Training regimen is sports dependent. Playing high level sports is always a high-level commitment. However, this depends on the sport. A lot of times gymnasts have to train for 6 hours a day to improve their skills. But most runners only train 2 hours a day at max with more prehab stuff in between because we would get stress fractures if we ran 6 hours a day.

Most sports training regimens require conditioning and recovery work. Football players spend a large amount of time on the field obviously, however, they also go to the weight room to do conditioning to get strong for their sports. Runners do foam rolling to prevent injuries. Almost all athletes will have to do things that are not directly practicing their sports to stay strong and healthy.

There are high volume and low volume seasons. Training at an intense level year round is not healthy and you cannot maintain peak fitness all year round (generally, I’m sure there are exceptions for some sports). Most athletes have a peak season near the championships and offseason after the championship where they train less or even take a little break from training.

Competitions are anxiety inducing. Athletes often feel pressure to perform their best, but competition anxiety can be especially intense if there are high stakes such as the World Cups finals. Thus, it is normal to feel nervous before competitions. Most athletes try to control it, because for sports like gymnastics where balance is important, anxiety might ruin a competition. For sports like running, a fight or flight response might be helpful (provided that your body chooses flight).

Training hard is hard on your body. Oftentimes, during seasons when I’m running 40+ miles a week, I’ll never be able to get enough sleep and might have (minor!!!) aches and pains. During those periods, I’ll need a lot more food and water than usual, and a less stressful life overall. An athlete might need a little more TLC during this time.

Finally, athletics is a community and teaches wonderful lessons. Participating in sports whether at the recreational or high level is a very rewarding experience. I met a lot of my friends through sports and I’ve learned to never give up on my way. It’s also a great way to relax after a busy day.

So I hope this helped non-athletes who are writing about athletes. Conclusion: the life of an athlete is definitely tough but rewarding at the same time, but it’s all sport and athlete dependent.

No idea how it's decided who gets nominated. Sweden were on international podiums 258 times last year and 100 were gold medals. Ebba won two world cup golds and a bronze medal in Planica.

It's a huge achievement anyway, there are 12 nominees when the voting starts and 10 left when the gala starts. Then during the evening it goes down to 5 and then 3 before the last round of voting between the final 2 begins. Ebba recieved more votes than other sport superstars like Sarah Sjöström, Hanna Öberg, Sandra Näslund, Daniel Ståhl and Swewnt (unfortunately...) besides Duplantis.

wait so if they could do teams why didn't the sprint team win it 😅 or like the whole xc team but obvs the sprinters were the biggest stars last year

very interesting process still though and I'm really happy for ebba!! so cool she was recognised

Let’s just say if the 8 biggest countries created their own world cup there wouldn’t be many left of the usual winners. XC Skiing is a small sport in that way.

yea I don't know how much global appeal skiing has as a sport in terms of countries who participate at the top level

season is over. completely. all winter sports.

I have to say it has been a nice, but a hurting one ( to many retirements🥺)

I’d love to say what my favourite moments were but there were way toooo many

We got wonderful olympic medalists, amazing world cups and wholesome friendships. But also heartbreaking, sad moments and athletes who have shown that they’re true champions, while handling these.

but especially I have to mention daniel andre tande for being the biggest fighter and one of the bravest athletes I’ve ever seen

so thank u season 2021/22❤️❤️❤️

(okay special mention of severin freund and erik lesser in case of retiring, cause it hurts, mikaela shiffrin for showing what it needs to be a real athlete, marco odermatts beautiful way of skiing, german xc skiing girls taking unexpected gold, ryoyu kobayshi and karl geigers friendship and mutual respect)

Cross country World Cup - spoiler free edition!

We had a crowd of 15k show up for the races this weekend! Obviously was super incredible to watch Jessie ski a home town race, she has not competed in Minnesota since she was 19 so it was fun just to experience. Hoping that we will get the opportunity to host again, the lack of snow had me anxious but this really is just an exceptional winter.

I got to watch one of my high school cross country team mates compete, even though she was nowhere near podium it was still super awesome to see one of our own competing on a course we used to race in high school as a professional now. She’s in the process of training to compete in biathlon so maybe we’ll get to watch her in one of those races next winter!

It’s a holiday in the U.S. today so I was able to participate in the community ski event on the track today, probably my first and last ski of the winter considering we’re about to go above freezing temps this week again. The snow was shimmering from all the fallen glitter that everyone was wearing ✨

hiii thank you for the spoiler-free version!! sounds like you had an awesome experience, I'm so happy for you that it went ahead and you went and saw everything 😊 and the community event on the tracks sounds so cool and the glitter 🥺 makes me want to go to a xc cup too but sadly I doubt I'll be in the vicinity of one anytime soon
