Louisa May Alcott 5k race

We kicked off our CSU-X fall race season with the Louisa May Alcott 5k, in Concord. It's a flat road course, which doesn't exactly suit skier strengths, but it was fun to dust off the racing legs! Strong showings by CSUers, and I think every single junior hit a PR. Good cool weather and a good summer of training will do that for you. Us more experienced coaches and parents may not have hit PRs, but we enjoyed the race anyway.

Linden led the way, in 4th place overall! Huge PR, and a good run. In the 5k, we had:

Linden
Henry
Ben
Tod
Alex B
Heiner
Clara
Milo
Eva
Jane Anna
Rob
Will
Evie
Cat
Hannah
Owen

In the 10k, Cameron led the way in 2nd overall, and Pat was in 6th with a strong run.

I didn't get many photos of the CSU kids winning every medal there is to win, but just trust me when I say we cleaned up.
