With lack of snow everywhere, the UVM carnival was switched to Craftsbury in VT. With a 2.5k loop of snow, they were still able to pull off a 5k/10k skate on Saturday and a 10k/10k classic on Sunday. The skate race was pretty fast and the classic course held up just fine, but the last steep hill in the field was a mashed potato slog-fest, where everyone had to herringbone up. Not all of us may have posted the best results we would have liked this weekend, but everyone pushed together and stayed positive. I believe we are headed in the right direction! The snow has fallen and there is more snow here in Canton!! We'll see you back in Craftsbury this Valentine's Day weekend!
