2010- 2011 Practice Schedule
We practice on most Wednesdays
(7:50-9:00) and Fridays
(7:40-8:50) beginning from mid September through mid March at
The Edge Ice Areana of Bensenville,
735 Jefferson Street, Bensenville, IL 60106-3160
** The Glen Ellyn Speed Skating Club will practice at The Edge in Bensenville on Wednesdays (7:50-9:00) and Fridays (7:40-8:50).
The Wednesday session will be a traditional club practice, while the Friday session will either offer traditional club practice plus use of the facilities to supplement the workout (training rooms on-site so we can offer a heavy load of training), or, on race weekends, it will offer targeted training for race preparation, with focus on starts, race strategies, passing, etc (light physical load).
