Lost Nation Roll 2020

Sunday was a great day for a rollerski race! Safety protocols were followed and NENSA and Craftsbury put on an incredibly cool event. With timing chips, real bibs (including coach bibs), a rollerski loop course, Bullitt Timing and a wand at the start, and all the fencing and spectacle you’d see at an Eastern Cup, it really made for a real race that got the winter excitement bubbling.

Oh, and don’t discount the fact that Jessie Diggins, Susan Dunklee, and others were all racing too! What an opportunity. I have to say I am a bit bummed that more of our crew didn’t jump at the chance to get this race in…it was as ski-specific as you can get, a fun challenge, and we really don’t know how many races we’ll get to do this winter. I got the question of “where are the MNC Juniors?” from multiple parents and fellow coaches alike.

That’s not to discredit the great racing by our contingent of Brady, Taylor, Farmer, Isabelle, plus Masters skier Michael G and UVM Club skier and friend-of-the-Pugs Sam Holt. Despite not having the Range at our disposal, these skiers handled the roller track like nobody’s business and got to share the loop with some big names.

You can find some results here, a gallery of photos from John Lazenby here, and a video recap video below!
