Summer roller-skiing information:
- Cost is $100: skate roller-skis and poles issued to you for the summer
- Take a week off from spring sports
- Helmets REQUIRED, gloves highly suggested (blister-rich environment), and water bottle and carry belt also highly suggested (sort of hot in the summer)
- This is scheduled to complement summer running, with the idea that you can run on Mondays and Wednesdays and then have roller-skiing as a Plan B for Friday - based on how your body is feeling.
- Organizational meeting: Monday, June 2nd at 7pm at Winona HS Commons (I am also asking for help making BK5K bibs afterward, approximately 1hr of work)
