💬 "There are two different techniques in Nordic skiing and they require completely different equipment." Grace McIntyre (🎿), uottawageegees This week, the #OUA and seewhatshecando share some of the unique aspects identified by our women student-athletes in their sport of Nordic skiing! Visit the link in our bio for more and stay tuned for continued insights, thoughts, and stories as part of the 'See How She Got Started' initiative. #WeAreONE #SeeWhatSheCanDo
Our Ski Through School event at uOttawa on March 1 was a huge success! The event highlighted the many benefits of combining education with sport and emphasized the various paths that young women can take to stay involved in sport. uOttawa Gee-Gees athletes and U18/U16 athletes from nakkertokracing, chelseanordiq, and kanatanordic started the session with a campus tour jog, followed by a 1-hour at the uOttawa High Performance Center with geegee_performance trainers. This was followed by a social with team building activities, information about the benefits of staying in sport, University/College ski programs, and fun trivia about women in sport and skiing through school (ski jeopardy!). We hope that all athletes came away inspired to stay involved in sport. Thanks to the nordiqcanada Women’s Committee for creating the opportunity, and to the following supporters who made the event fantastic: uottawageegees Sports Services, apogee.sports, cycleryottawa, and xactnutrition. Thanks also to l.o.d.photos who took some amazing photos of our planning and the event!

This ski jeopardy game is just a small sample of the fun we had at the premier Ski Through School event yesterday.

In the meantime we challenge you to answer these questions in the comments! First 3 correct response to all 3 questions will receive a prize from our sponsors - either our new awesome pink buff from apogee.sports or an Xactnutrition sampler with delicious Fruit2's and chronobars (sorry no delivery - and you may have to join us skiing to pick it up!). . . . #jeopardy #SkiThroughSchool #SkierEtEtudier #studentathlete #sheskinnyskis #winterwomen #sheexplores #SheIs #IfIseeItICanBeIt #seewhatshecando #keepgirlsinsport #girlsinsport #empoweredforlife #keepherinthegame #fastandfemale #xcskiing #biathlon #crosscountryski #nordicskiclub #GGNation #uOttawa #skidefond

1st year uottawascience Biology student Zoe_pekos combines academics with high performance skiing to have a more balanced life and not get burned out mentally. Zoe is a member of the Canadian Biathlon Team and has had an incredible cross country ski season - landing her a spot to represent Canada at the World U23 Nordic Ski Championships. Unfortunately a fall resulting in injury at the Eastern Canadian Championships forced her to give up her spot, but whe is dealing with this setback admirably and will come back even stronger! . What is Ski Through School? Ski Through School is an initiative created to show female athletes the benefits of combining skiing with College/University studies. . Thanks to the NordiqCanada Women’s Committee for supporting this initiative. . . . . . .#SkiThroughSchool #SkierEtEtudier #studentathlete #sheskinnyskis #winterwomen #sheexplores #SheIs #IfIseeItICanBeIt #seewhatshecando #keepgirlsinsport #girlsinsport #empoweredforlife #keepherinthegame #fastandfemale #xcskiing #biathlon #crosscountryski #nordicskiclub #GGNation #uOttawa #skidefond
