Above it's all about boots and blades...
Today it was back to practice as usual for the skaters that live in Utah. Short track practice was held from 7:00am-9:00am. Remember that skaters here arrive at least 45 minutes ahead of a scheduled practice so that they can warm-up and be ready to step out onto the ice when practice starts. Erin DiJulio leads Amber and Heather down the straight.
Long Track practice for some of the groups were scheduled for 9:00am-10:00am and for others they were there 9:00am-11:00am.
Then a couple of the World Cup teams started practicing after the Zamboni did it's thing some time after 11:00am. I'm wondering if Russia just shows up earlier for WC's (the World Cup is 2 weeks away) or if teams have scheduled practice times like we do at World's.
The Coach from RUSSIA takes a moment with his
skaters during practice. More photos from today, here.
Look for video of some of our skaters coming this week. Linda
