Thanks again to Gary Solow for help taking photos at the Trapp’s Eastern Cup last weekend. There has been a lot of sickness going around so our group was a bit smaller this weekend. It is February now and everyone is getting laser-focus on the most important races of their winter in the next 5-6 weeks. THings kick-off tomorrow with the EHSC/J2 qualifier races. Then we have the final Eastern Cup weekend of the year over in NH next weekend. After that are State Championships, Juniors Nationals, Eastern High School Championships and J2 Championships! It is going to be an exciting time for all the MNC athletes participating and excelling at a variety of levels! And staying healthy by missing a race here or there is a necessary part of that success.
