After the completion of the relay the stadium at Craftsbury switched gears to "CARNIE CRUSH" mode. Teams performed their "crushes" for each other which was quite entertaining as always!! This coming weekend we're off to Middlebury (the host of NCAA Championships this year) to test out the new courses with a 5/10K Classic on Friday and 15/20K Mass Start Skate on Saturday.
