CHSAA #2: Summit

We went racing today in Breckenride at the Gold Run Nordic Center for our 2nd CHSAA race of the year. It was a 5K mass start skate race on a beautiful mountain day. This place is higher than 9,000 feet! Get your lungs burning. Zoe, Hilary, and Jin-Yeop were racing and did awesome against a huge field of Colorado's finest. It was great to see the black and silver suits out there in the midst. If you have never seen a mass start race, it is something to behold. More exciting than NASCAR, guarenteed. Another day in paradise.


The girls' start. What a crowd! You're lucky to make it through this in one piece. Zoe and Hilary nailed it!



Hilary in her first nordic race ever. She did awesome!



Jin-Yeop in the thick of it during the boys' start.



Relaxing pre-race. Nobody screws with the CRMS nordic team. A tough bunch of kids.
