Mark your calendars: The 15th Annual SkiErg World Sprints will be held November 9-12, 2023.
This 1000-meter virtual race allows you to compare your time against others worldwide in a one-weekend showdown of speed. Whether you’re using the Concept2 SkiErg for general fitness or to train for competitive Nordic skiing, use this event to see how you stack up against other SkiErg users around the world.
How it works: Race 1000 meters on the SkiErg, and we will send your times to Concept2 for ranking. There will be prizes for the top men and women. Did you know Cr8 Fitness has former WORLD ranked champions? True story, so you don't want to miss it! In fact last year 4 ladies placed in the top 100. World wide ranking is one of the best incentives for me.
Time and Place: On Saturday November 12th we will open the gym up from 8:00am to 9:00am so you can come on in, give your best race, and get your time recorded. This is for anybody and everybody - just because you are not a World Champ (yet) doesn't mean you should stay home. There is only one way to find out how awesome you really are, and that is to be there!
Need more information? Her's the scoop directly from Concept 2.
To help you train for this event, there will be more skiing in regular training. (and the crowd goes wild!) For all of those who want to dig deep into training and finding their best time, there is a training protocol we'll be following. The gym will be open for you to use on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Please let me know you'll be coming. I'll have your individual training plan ready for you. With or without the Over the Top training, if we can get 30 people to ski the World Sprints we will be eligible to win a new ski machine.
Remember to please let us know if you want the Over The Top training.
See You There!
Coach Nancy
P.S. You might be seeing more skiing in the training to get us all prepared.
P. S. S. Did you notice that this is Concept 2 15th year running this challenge? And do you remember that Cr8 Fitness opened their doors 15 years ago? I'm sure this means that this will be a winning challenge for you.
