Week In Review: Friday Apr 22nd

I took a break today from the retiring skier posts, but they will resume next Friday… The first two parts of a brief season review for the North American skiers this week, focusing on the men’s and women’s distance skiers.

Week In Review: Friday Apr 15th

What a taxing week I’ve had… Ha ha. Very funny. (It’s tax day in the US, for you foreign readers.)

Week In Review: Friday Mar 11th

I managed to post a fair bit this week, though not today really, despite being out of town. Thanks again to Skaði Nordic for sponsoring Week In Review. With Nordic World Championships wrapping up and biathlon World Championships getting under way we had a ton of racing: the women’s 30k, the men’s 50km, biathlon sprint […]
