Pursuit Time Trial at MSA Camp

Rob's Report on Day 4 at MSA Ski Camp and Erin's Photos from the time trial:

Is this day 4?  I'm starting to lose track.

We had a great day today. Sure it was 10 F and windy, but the skiing was great.  We did our annual time-trial. It's 4K of classic, a quick change to skate gear, and the 4K again.  Bill Koch skiers did just the classic portion.  Including the BKLers we had 33 racers.  (I'll send results out soon - it's a lot of typing!).

Thanks very much to our hardy parents who stood out in the cold doing timing and video work.   It gave the coaches a chance to race and we are incredibly appreciative of that.

The cold was tough for the inexperienced and a few of our younger skiers did not know to cover their ears and there was some minor frostbite, but nothing serious.

In the afternoon some folks did a second ski workout.  The gang here in the club condo headed to the Chutes Montmorency to view the impressive waterfall. Then to the Chateau Frontenac for toboggan races.  We did some souvenir shopping and then had a find italian dinner at Portofino in the old city.
