Last time trials at the Pettit

So yesterday concluded the series of time trials at the Pettit Ice center, US olympic training facility. I raced 500 ending with 38,7 and 10,4 opener and after a long time 3000m slowing down to 4.35,29 which still is my record. The videos below hold the first and last 100m of my 500m skating. There are still mistakes that have to be improved, but the way is up.
Especially my corners have taken a huge improvement during this season, for many reasons and now finally it starts feeling like there is some sort of routine noticeable on them.
The 3000m showed the problem now causing every distance to fail, lack of endurance. I may have tolerable physique on bike and by running but my stamina on ice is drained way too rapidly. The technique may have its own part to loss of power, and I admit that, but there is only certain amount you can train on technique and even though I have not reached the top yet (one never does) the skating endurance cannot be disregarded. This side will be fixed during the summer training. Luckily I have been blessed with the best possible coaches I could ever imagine back home in Finland and here in the US.
Next week I will leave to Salt Lake City on Wednesday and the races will begin there on Friday. Video blog coming up when I reach Park city until that,
Stay tuned!
