This winter with no scheduled break and only one weather cancellation, there was more racing than most years over the last 5. Violette mentioned the lack of breaks in winter and the lack of snow forced training breaks as a possible culprit this winter in an interview with Seth Merrow and Steve Byk last Sat.

The schedule this year hasn't been any different than any recent years I can remember.
