Technique and AWG trials this weekend

The WCCSC has made a request to CCY to reverse the techniques of the AWG trial races to be held this weekend. The change is needed in order to keep Copper Trail open on Sunday. The weekend schedule will now be as follow:

Saturday Jan 13: mass start skate races with random start grid lane assignments (South courses).

Sunday  Jan 14: classic 30 second interval start seeded based on the result from the skate race held Saturday (North courses).

Fingers crossed that the temperatures will be conductive to racing this weekend.

The team raced again today at the NORAM races in the skate sprints.

Here are the results for the Yukon skiers who competed earlier today:

Dahria Beatty 1st in Open Women 1350 m sprint
Knute Johnsgaard 5th in Open Men 1350 m sprint
Amanda Thomson 16th in the Open Junior Women 1350 m
Hannah Deuling 41st in the Open Junior Women 1350 m
