More Fall Sports Results

CC vs L-S
I see that in the big CC/L-S smackdown CC took top honors in the boys race while L-S took the girls race, but darned if I can find the individual results anywhere.  This is a crime that needs to be fixed.  In this day of the internet there really is no excuse for this paucity of data.

22nd Annual CSU Rollerski Race

The 22nd Annual CSU Rollerski Race will be held on Sunday November 7 this year.  The race is a 15km classic race (7.5km for juniors) on a 2 lap course in N. Andover.  The first hill has been repaved as well as the back side of the course.  Should be good!

Map of the race course can be seen at: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=192762


For a race entry form email me at: jdoucett@comcast.net
 
I could use some help with corners and timing.  If you can help out please let me know!
 



Concept2 Ski Erg Sprints

Concept2 has announced the dates for their "SkiErg World Sprints", Nov 12-14. This is a dispersed event; you get on a SkiErg wherever you can, go 1000 m, and then submit your time to Concept2. They post it on it with everyone else's times on their web site.

Last year Eric Brote, Alex Jospe, Hamish McEwen, Andy Milne, Corey Stock, and Jim Stock participated. Corey and Andy were 4th and 1st in their age classes. (I'm not surprised)

The Bermans now have a SkiErg, and any CSUers who want to get into the competition can contact us to arrange a time to come over.

Specific strength workout

We met on a drizzling Sunday to do some specific strength. Just three skiers, and a coach who was practicing leaning on her poles. Spirits were high, though, and we did some good strength work and technique work. As always, the starts are the most fun part!

Ready, set...

go!

No pole starts.

My skis are glowing in the dark.

CSU at the Pisgah Mt. Trail Race

CSU runners/skiers Lisa Doucett and Donna Smyth ran the Pisgah Mt. Trail Race last weekend, Lisa opting for the "short" 23km race and Donna for the longer 50km race.  Both had good days with Lisa finishing 1st woman in her race (17th overall) in 2:17:55 while Donna finished 6h woman (1st over 50) and 34th overall.  The 50km mens race was won by skiier David Herr of Canann, VT and the women's 50km was won by a former CSU skier Amy Lane!

Donna's REPORT on her 50km race.

Results are HERE.
