Summer Training Program


Two options for summer training.

1. Signup for Central MN Nordic Summer Training with Joe, Hunter, and Dan. Monday at 4:30 or 6:00 for canoeing/kayaking and Tuesday at 6:00 for rollerskiing.  Great, affordable, local opportunity for cross-training and a lot of fun!  

Sign up through Little Falls Community Services at the district office or ONLINE.

2. Coach: Kevin Brochman coaches at St Olaf in the winter.  He has worked with two skiers that have been NCAA Champions, Olympians and National Champions. He has worked with 13 skiers that have won gold medals at Junior Nationals.  Kevin has coached 4 Minnesota skiers to the Olympics (including Jessie Diggins), 3 who he worked with for several years.
  • 1984 & 1988 Olympic Team Member

  • Member of the US Ski Team from 1982-1991
  • 25 Top 10 finishes at US National Championship Events
  • Junior National Champion, 1977, 4th Place at MN State Ski Meet
  • He has completed 4 marathons with a best of 2:39:59, best 10km 33:47
  • Four top 10 finishes in the Birkiebeiner, with a best place of 5th overall. That race he was 6.9 seconds from becoming the first American to win the Birke in 25 years.

He will be offering a summer training in St. Cloud again this year.  There will be two sessions per week:
  • Mondays from 10:15-Noon Classic with Kevin Brochman
  • Thursday nights with Issac Weiber from 6:-8PM.  
Both of those sessions are at the River Bluffs regional park, near AirMaxx Trampoline Park.  If you want to add a 3rd session there's a session at Elm Creek on Wednesday mornings from 7-9AM.  That would also be skate.

Last summer three of our skiers participated in Kevin's summer training program in St Cloud.  Families coordinated car pooling to get them all there.  If you or your skier has any questions about the program, contact Jackson, Colton Y, or Cormac.
