Elite/University

Summer training at the Thomas Training Center on Eagle GlacierAPU Elite team is getting ready to move to summer training at the Thomas Training Center on Eagle Glacier. The Elite team is off to a good start building base and working on technique. The hard work we put in during the summer, pays off in the winter.
— Coach Erik Flora

University

Summer training running trails.The early Summer training season is in full swing and the University Team is already making steady gains.  First in numbers, the University Team, a younger crew of the APU Elite squad, grew by a few members.Garth Schulz,Fischer Gangemi, Andre Lovett, and Early Honors students Thomas O’Harra and David McPhetres join returning members McKinsey Loan, Celia Haering, Sarah Cresap, Greta Anderson, Jack Novak, and Forrest Mahlen.

The University Team is training along side the older Elite Team with numerous 2014 Olympic candidates but with slight alterations to keep them focused on building a rock solid training base. The kind of base that the older Elites have used as a springboard to capture headlines.  It’s taking a lot of hard work and an unusual amount of sweat these days, but the foundation is taking shape!
