NightSpeed:
The final nightspeed race of the year is on for next Tuesday, February 18th!
Race 5: Sarah Steele Candy Run
Technique: Freestyle (classic or skate)
Organized by Brian Horton and Junior Development Program (JDP) coaches
This is a freestyle race on narrow trails, make sure to bring a headlamp! Kids will do a loop of BEA, getting a cup of marshmallows at the bum tree. We will start them at the junction of BEA so there is no getting lost. They get 10 seconds off per marshmallow successfully returned to SS hut.
Adults will ski to the gazebo. Start will be a bit down 7.5 to give space for people to spread out. They may pick their own route, but must go counter clockwise. At the gazebo, they get marshmallows, but no cup (may only carry outside their clothes). 5 seconds off per marshmallow.
We will have a fire, hot dogs, chips, veggies and hot chocolate at the finish.
Registration and bib pickup is between 5:45 and 6:15pm. Start at 7pm.
Nightspeed is an independently organized race series. Each race features a unique course and format, a different organizer, and a new way to challenge yourself! Races offer options intended to make racing fun and inclusive for everyone. Each race is $10 (or $40 for all 6 races). Registration happens right before the race at Mount Mac. Pay by cash or credit card.
