My First Biathlon Race: Similarities and Differences to Nordic Racing - There are some obvious differences between nordic and biathlon racing that I already knew, such as the many different racing and shooting formats for biathlon (I still don’t understand them all fully, but I’m getting there). The other obvious difference is that you have to ski with the rifle on your back the whole time. Before the races, I wasn’t sure how much this would affect me, but after three laps up Hermodes (the biggest hill at Soldier Hollow) with the rifle, I can definitely say that the 8 lb increase is significant. Another pretty obvious difference is the shooting portion of the races. I knew going into them that I would likely have both slower and worse shooting stages than everyone else, as I am very inexperienced, but I also learned how much breathing hard in racing can affect your shooting. This was increased by the altitude, already making it much more difficult to breathe. It is important when shooting to slow your breathing and hold while you aim and pull the trigger so the rifle doesn’t move at all before you take your shot. This is incredibly difficult when you are gasping for air. I also haven’t worked on shooting quickly, and thus often hold my breath a few beats too long. This is fine in training, but totally throws off your aim when you’re racing and out of breath. I learned that slowing the breathing and taking an extra breath to get on target before you pull the trigger produces far better results than trying to hold until the sights are lined up. Another difference that I encountered during the races, which I hadn’t considered before taking up the sport, is that when rollerskiing, your rifle will hit your helmet when you tuck. This is both uncomfortable and makes it impossible to lift your head to see where you are going while you’re in a tuck. To counter this, you must shift the rifle to one side so that you can sort of twist your head to the other side and up in order to see where you are going whilst still in the tuck position. This position freaked me out considerably, and going downhills with the rifle was still very uncomfortable and scary for me before the race.

Abby works at Champion Mind (Website) and is specialized in mental performance training for athletes and coaches. We wanted to start this series of all things athletic with goals and goal setting. Goals can be crucial in every aspect of you life and for a lot of people this may or may not be something they focus enough on - at least I never did! A goal can be a really helpful tool for you as it may stimulate some emotions, feelings and gratitude towards what you’re doing and help you especially now that the winter is approaching, but is just not quite here yet. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/77a7b439-d7e0-4b18-9e46-70b11a8cd83a/goal-setting.png BLOG - Goal Setting with Abby Reckinger - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/cbae7852-970f-4a45-977a-db4689ce7d0f/istockphoto-1347288186-612x612.jpg BLOG - Goal Setting with Abby Reckinger https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/6c395a85-1fa5-4d69-baea-ba375c4a8e1e/DVXlcrnVoAAE_Uf.jpg BLOG - Goal Setting with Abby Reckinger - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/9439104d-7b4e-45fa-a8e5-02e607c40ae4/360_F_181473290_WNBruslEQlzcAIK3lYb6br4eGYgedLk0.jpg BLOG - Goal Setting with Abby Reckinger - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/52fdbfde-3d8f-4e3c-a3d3-da60316f01d3/Black+Font+Logo_White+background.png BLOG - Goal Setting with Abby Reckinger https://www.teambirkie.com/blog/exploring-the-thrill-of-racing monthly 0.5 2023-10-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/4381d0a0-0edc-4bd0-ba78-6d1dc16a9a4b/395193366_881180220405183_8716617486317598549_n.jpg BLOG - Race Weekend in Birkieland "This past weekend was a great chance for us to use the rollerski track in Cable to help us prepare for the season ahead. The resource that this provides us is something we definitely don't take for granted. Having the ability to emulate a ski race, on a homologated course, is one of a kind, especially for us in the Midwest. It was great to see Zak and Kevin come into the weekend with a game plan and execute it well. Saturday's 10km skate race was definitely a challenge with the rain and wet leaves that we were faced up against but to see them use this as an opportunity to race and perform in conditions that weren't by any means comfortable was awesome. On Sunday we decided to add in some L4 intervals in between the qualifiers which was a great way to simulate heats in the winter. To see that both of their second qualifiers were very close to the first ones really gives us confidence that we will be able to go the distance in sprint races this year. Another great aspect of this weekend was to have some of our summer college athletes here as well. To see the progression that they have made from the spring to now makes us very excited to see how the winter will go!" - Matthew Clarke https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/5b71a972-dcc8-4edf-b469-4a137afedf9d/tempImage80nl2U.jpg BLOG - Race Weekend in Birkieland - Kevin, Zak and coach Chad - Technique analysis and discussion between heats on Sunday. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/574040c3-41a7-4727-a605-3e25dbc8bb06/393626172_880524197137452_12664437303466607_n.jpg BLOG - Race Weekend in Birkieland - Make it stand out Zak Ketterson. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/6d65043b-624f-445c-aef5-abcf501d5d14/393737001_880524280470777_6130498907158264035_n.jpg BLOG - Race Weekend in Birkieland - Make it stand out Kevin Bolger. https://www.teambirkie.com/blog/hrrbk3xv12wzoai6fbmr5hj63zg8a8 monthly 0.5 2023-10-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/8a8ca9f5-5669-49b5-8fb3-be6046398aee/IMG_20230804_111838.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Make it stand out Picture taken right after completing the annual 3k time trial! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/d169dfbc-149f-46f0-a82c-88988e651e37/74300bdc-0a6e-4638-8d09-6d0303941135.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap Smiling after completing a time trial in the sun! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/45b416b9-6d30-46da-baaa-8100fdd1a461/tempImage4eNdvT.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Zak in sunny Bend, OR in May. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/4bee8e96-7993-4fc6-9eaa-bc65d3f6a3fa/tempImageELKxRT.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Zak and teammate Gus at Pioneer Midwest after some VO2 testing early summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/a2f448fc-1618-4f49-8dd7-3685a159c206/tempImageN83gyu.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Zak with Julie in Park City on a long hike. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/b4da4f0c-2a88-4b95-b0f2-5818f950ae69/IMG_0315.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Make it stand out Jake (3rd front from the left) from our team photoshoot earlier this summer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/f88843c2-4315-4587-a7d5-6fd38992b871/PXL_20230813_131940533%7E2.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap Rollerskiing in the city! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/5f49fa8a-06f8-40d0-b0ff-e2457a871b94/PXL_20230708_143647331.MP.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Make it stand out Technique training discussions https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/a1a337da-08c9-4730-bc14-b77f3ed26901/PXL_20230804_234658011.jpg BLOG - Summer Recap - Picture from a Farewell BBQ dinner for the college crew! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/e14a5eaa-3918-4fcf-ab8e-80981d6d617d/Screenshot_20230616-133958.png BLOG - Summer Recap - Make it stand out Thanks for a nice summer! https://www.teambirkie.com/blog/8k6pny86mtrav9hvbl08gwa9892wsy monthly 0.5 2023-02-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/7a591742-c432-483a-af40-9dd068a8df05/IMG_9468.jpeg BLOG - January and February Fun ☀️ - Make it stand out Myself striding over the bridge by OO trailhead.

Ketterson - Zak Ketterson Hometown: Bloomington, Minnesota Date of Birth: 04/02/1997 (age 26) Pro Since: 2021 College/Country: Northern Michigan University / USA Follow on: Instagram, Strava, Facebook, www.zakketterson.com Favorite place to visit in Minnesota? Target Center, the home of the Minnesota Timberwolves (NBA). My dad and I went to a ton of basketball games there when I was growing up and I have remained a huge Wolves fan to this day. Now, if only they could make the playoffs… Favorite pre-race breakfast? Oatmeal with a variety of toppings. I have had oatmeal for breakfast every morning for the past four years and it has never let me down. On race mornings, I try to eat my breakfast three hours before the race starts. Favorite workout? 6x8 minutes L3 (medium/hard) rollerskiing intervals. I really enjoy the challenge that comes with having to remain really focused for longer periods of time. What keeps you motivated? Staying focused on improvement and progress. I get a lot of motivation from knowing that if I am better than I used to be, I can also be better than I am now. This approach also helps me deal with the day-to-day ups and downs because I am more concerned with my long-term improvement. Tips for recovery? It is equally important to recover your mind as it is to recover your body. Oftentimes a mental “chill” period is just as important as a physical one. Things like school, work, and life stress have a huge impact on your body’s ability to handle your training load. Don’t be afraid to adjust your training to better accommodate your life stresses. How can you make your community better? I recognize that some of the privileges that I have enjoyed in my life are not a reality for so many others in my community. I strive to use my position as a professional skier to help make Nordic skiing more accessible to people from underprivileged backgrounds. Living in Minneapolis gives me the unique opportunity to work with skiers from all different ages and backgrounds. I challenge myself to be a mentor and positive role model for everyone who looks up to me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/f553aa1c-f8e4-452f-a0cf-f60b3d8b0ef1/Zak+sprint+2.jpg Zak Ketterson - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.teambirkie.com/photos daily 0.75 2023-10-14 https://www.teambirkie.com/contact-1 daily 0.75 2025-07-26 https://www.teambirkie.com/donate daily 0.75 2026-02-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/1b5f49fb-2c41-47a5-93f4-286e1522251e/Screenshot+2024-06-07+at+2.25.01%E2%80%AFPM.png https://www.teambirkie.com/sam-holt daily 0.75 2024-06-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/e0519c55-58e9-4efd-9fc6-bb90e8ce91fc/298235945_404220135132912_3898101236587951026_n.jpg Sam Holt - Sam Holt Hometown: Orono, ME Date of Birth: 02/23/2000 Occupation: Research and Development Technologist in the food industry Team Birkie Member Since: 2022 College: University of Vermont Follow on: Instagram, Strava Favorite thing about Minnesota? It's really cool to have such a high concentration of nordic skiers in one place, and with it the large number of training groups, events, trail systems/ snowmaking venues, ski shops, and just a generally great ski/ outdoor culture Favorite post-workout snack? Homemade protein shake as an appetizer for some kind of pastry (and a banana to balance it out) Favorite skiing technique? Thought I was a classic guy, but my skating has gotten a lot better the past few years, so now it honestly depends on the day Favorite skiing venues? Forêt Montmorency in Québec, or the New England Outdoor Center in Maine How did you get into skiing? My Dad tried to get me on skate skis a few times when I was 12 or 13, saying it was "just like hockey," but I actually hated every minute of it. But then I quit hockey (and golf) when I was 15 and got talked into XC running, and then a guy on the team talked me back into nordic. This time around I was hooked, and quickly improved just by doing it. I really got into it senior year and used the internet to learn more about training, eventually winning the Maine Class C state championship on my birthday, the day after Diggins and Randall won gold. Lowkey still trying to top that . . . https://www.teambirkie.com/apply daily 0.75 2026-01-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/b9a5dca4-4a50-4a7e-a3a1-5e167adf3982/468429006_18030145097598688_1899996514178287746_n.jpg PROGRAMS https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/e352350b-bd26-460b-8465-995ab63fa9da/482026843_644980657901794_69602184736113195_n.jpg PROGRAMS https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/bd5294f6-6455-4b4c-b8d5-395c4bc8aa36/Screenshot+2025-06-26+at+9.03.27%E2%80%AFAM.png PROGRAMS https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/3811b659-e2c3-47e6-ba50-715af0b1771f/Screenshot+2026-01-27+at+06.07.09.png PROGRAMS https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/d384d56a-285d-4c8c-9fdc-40492470b98e/Screenshot+2025-07-09+at+12.36.18%E2%80%AFPM.png https://www.teambirkie.com/yuriy-gusev daily 0.75 2023-03-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/705374d2-b8aa-4872-888c-0bd2af6290b7/Yuriy-Gusev.jpg Yuriy Gusev - Yuriy Gusev Yuriy Gusev is the Executive Director of Central Cross Country Skiing (CXC), a non-profit organization that promotes and develops cross-country skiing in the central region of the United States.

What Inspires you to Ski: Slow is smooth- smooth is fast. This is what I tell myself before every race. A reminder that skiing is poetry in motion, that If I trust my process and the goals I set I can overcome anything. And knowing I can ski faster and faster motivates me everyday. A Tip for Staying Healthy: East Sleep Hydrate- That covers all bases on staying fit and healthy! How can/do you make the community better? Get Involved!!!!! I would not be able to call myself and Olympian without the support of my community.

I’ve been following the team results for last year and I really liked how they worked together as a team during races but also training, so I decided to give it a try! https://www.teambirkie.com/skylar-patten daily 0.75 2025-08-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/bc23380e-9a0b-4561-9ff2-0790f10ad850/9A02087E-6318-453D-BCA8-9A08285E262C.jpg Skylar Patten - Skylar Patten Hometown: Park City, Utah College: Michigan Tech Club: Park City Ski and Snow Board Follow on: instagram Why Team Birkie?

I’ve always admired Minneapolis as a hub of Nordic Skiing culture, and having quite a few friends on the team itself made the decision even easier. I saw it as a program and culture where I could reach the highest level of skiing, all while having a great time and experiencing a new location! How did you get into skiing? My dad was an extremely avid and accomplished Nordic skier and coach, and I virtually grew up on skis. I love all snow sports, but I found that Nordic just pulled me in, and continues to be my passion. Favorite skiing memory? A beautiful day in Summit, Colorado, where I was able to help my team bring home our fifth state championship title by winning both races. It was the end to one of my favorite eras of my racing career, and it felt like there could be no better way to end it! Favorite workout? For me there’s nothing quite as fun as a perfect mock sprint, but I love super long days at home where I can just get lost in the mountains and explore wherever I feel called to! What keeps you motivated? In short, the thought of crossing the line of a race in first is always a great motivator. But the amount of friends, teammates, and coaches that keep me coming back day after day drives me more than anything. That, along with the support from my parents, has always encouraged me to be the best human being, athlete, and competitor that I can be. https://www.teambirkie.com/adam-witkowski daily 0.75 2025-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6185eb594803b91bbc8bcdf2/fd0f387d-b00a-4b4b-9de2-2cd91b9ab7a8/Adam+ski.webp Adam Witkowski - Adam Witkowski Hometown: Victor, NY College: Michigan Tech Follow on: instagram Why Team Birkie?

Because they're incredibly supportive of my goal to train and race at a higher level despite coming from a non-traditional racing background How did you get into skiing? I learned to skate ski in middle school from my parents. Then, in high school, I ran cross country and track and decided I wanted to try ski racing. I fell in love with it and helped start a team at Colorado State University. I grew to love the sport more and more over the years and realized the year after graduation of racing at a higher level that I wanted to continue to do so. Favorite skiing memory? One of the races we did in college was also a citizen race and a costume race.

He taught and I learned eventually V1-ing my way into Wave 1 at the Birkie. It was time to get more serious so like most of us in the Twin Cities I went to Piotr Bednarski. Followed him around to figure out V2 and now I will be completing my 18th Birkie. Along the way, with Andy and Brenda Schweizer, we have been supporting Nordic athletes and programs. At this stage of the game, it’s now time to get more directly involved and Team Birkie is the perfect fit.
