Sadly conditions did not permit the old forge race. However that made the mega relay even more special for the dozen fast teams who enjoyed over a foot of snow at the gore ski bowl. It is time to rest, recover, and hot scrape those skis. I neglected using moly on my skis before the race, but you would not know it from the shavings.
Women’s Results, Men’s Results, Mixed Relay Results
It was a fast day and several racers cracked the 50 km mark. In the end Queensbury eeked out a victory over a strong Peru team. Their coach should be quite proud.

Next week keep an eye on the weather. Races are in Queensbury/Glens falls and Rochester. Remember glens falls will be a Wilkinson cup race.
This might be a good weekend to check out orienteering or biathlon in order to try something new, and take advantage of ski conditions at a different venue.
Think snow!
