We will out of school all day for this race. For this reason only varsity skiers will attend. (We will hold a separate JV championship after school on Feb. 2) Students should make sure they visit with their teachers about missed lesson on Monday, if they have not already done so. Coaches will work with the office on attendance details.
Please bring healthy food and a water bottle to stay properly hydrated. Another must is proper clothing for the weather. It is nice to have a second base layer to put on after the first race.
This race is in the pursuit format. That means that each skier will ski both a classic race and a skate race to achieve their best combined time. This format is fun to watch because skiers are sent out on the skate portion according to their times on the classic race. This means the first skier to cross the finish line wins. Skiers are racing head to head instead of against the clock.
