Co-Hosted by Durango Nordic Ski Club and Southwest Nordic Ski Club
Saturday, March 5, 2022: RMN Freestyle Distance Race
Saturday will be the RMN-scored distance race in freestyle technique. Standard RMN race distances per age group will apply:
U14 & U12 race distance: 3km
U10 & U08 race distance: 1.5km
Sunday, March 6, 2022: Relay
On Sunday, racers will team up with their assigned teammates to compete in a relay. Teams will be chosen at random within their respective age groups. Any willing and able coaches are encouraged to participate -- we will throw the coach names in a hat and mix them with the teams. Coaches may race more than once, with any of the various age groups. Please specify the age group(s) with which the coach would like to race. Skiers will race on a specially designed course, courtesy of the Durango Nordic groomers. Expect something silly, funky, and challenging. Costumes are highly recommended and almost mandatory, especially for the coaches! This will be a fun day of making friends and having fun on skis. Distances will vary and final details to be determined. Start times and teams will be announced on Saturday, March 5th.
