Not Dry Heat

In 2012, HURT nordic hosted a junior ski camp that ended up being during one of the hottest weeks of the calendar year.  So for the last twelve months HURT organizers have been poring over meteorological charts, weather maps, doppler radar and farmers almanacs that would help them pick a nice summer week of good weather, modest temperatures and low humidity.

Needless to say, HURT organizers really stink at being meteorologists.

The 2013 HURT camp was a humid, brutal sweat-fest with temps nearing the triple digits with air so thick you could chew it.  It did not keep skiers from thinking about the upcoming winter and the nordic race season.  The athletes beat the heat and took major steps toward reaching their individual goals of top finishes in JN Qualifers, Junior Nationals, Eastern High School Champs, J2 (U16) championships and club and school races.  It was a week that brought together skiers from RNR, NYSEF, HURT, and unattached skiers from all across the state.

The week was filled with strength sessions, OD skis, technique work, classic intervals, skate sprints, agility on dryland and skis, uphill time trials, mountain hike, and bounding sessions.....all that balanced out with plenty of swimming, splash pads, ping pong, napping, eating and recovering.  We would like to thank again STEWARTS SHOPS who donated ice cream sundaes for our kids and PRICE CHOPPER who donated a nice gift card for food.  We also want to thank THE SPORTS PAGE who continues to support the HURT nordic team and our nordic events.


It was a great week for NY skiing and youth skiing.  Visit our facebook page to view a video recap of the weeks happenings.  Here are a few pics:
