The carnival racing this past weekend took place at the Trapp Family Lodge Nordic Center in Stowe, VT. The snow was hit hard during the previous week of warm temps and rain, but they pulled together an excellent 5K race loop which was used for the 5/10K Skate on Saturday and the 10K Classic races on Sunday. Both the Men's and Women's team skied well all weekend with the women placing 5th both days and the men 6th on Saturday in the skate race and 5th on Sunday. The races were combined with an Eastern Cup, so we had 9 skiers in the women's field and 9 in the men's field. The number of racers doing laps out there was impressive!! Women- 227 finishers on Saturday and 164 finishers on Sunday. Men - 190 finishers on Saturday and 167 finishers on Sunday.
The depth of our team was shown all weekend long in both fields, but especially on Sunday where the top 6 Ephs were all in the top 29 in the carnival field!
