So the cross country trails are slowly closing one after another, and your thoughts are turning to warmer moments spent under a golden sun.  What will the summer hold for you?

While Biathlon races are won in the Winter, those victories are built in the summer.  Working on strength and developing a solid cardiovascular base will ensure that your next Biathlon season is successful as can possibly be.  So what does training in the off season look like?
