Results from the Classic Races at the Eastern and Training this week

The team completed the last day of racing at the Canadian Eastern Championships Sunday with the mass start classic races held on Sunday. The trail conditions were challenging with a mix of granular and fresh falling snow making it challenging for waxing. In the end it was a great day of racing with many top 10 results in many of the various age groups. The weekend was a great opportunity for our Yukon skiers to test their fitness in the largest ever assembled field in Canadian history with a total of nearly 800 skiers taking part.
