Cross-country skiing

Cross-country skiing is a beautiful sport that for many people is an annual means of escaping from grey offices and the hustle and bustle of cities into the white, quiet countryside. For some, it is also an opportunity to compare their own abilities with their rivals in the race. It is a sport that is accessible to all people regardless of age or gender. To all interested parties, from recreational skiers, who once, twice a year with his family to a mountain resort, to top skiers, spending weeks and months in the snow, allows cross-country skiing to experience extraordinary moments. The authors address both the basic issues of interest to beginner runners, such as the selection of appropriate equipment and the basics of running technique, as well as experienced athletes who want to achieve better results through properly chosen training. The film on the enclosed DVD complements the book, very clearly describing the technique of riding performed by Kateřina Neumannová, the methodology of practicing individual disciplines, warm-ups and other topics for which readers have so far been referred only to written descriptions.
