Since the age of 12 I have been privileged to have been part of the Section Sportive Ski Nordique; for Cross country skiing and Biathlon at Font-Romeu. This is based at my local college which specializes in sporting students, allowing us time to train during our school week. We have on average 8 hours of training integrated into our school timetable, with access to the firing range and roller ski track just next to the school campus, in Winter we have access our local ski stations.
Here are some photo of my team through the years:
