First Time Trial of the Year


from Bill McKibben:

The winners were Bruce Ingersoll, who skated the 5k course in an astonishing 15:40, Ted Hicks, the first classic skier across in 18 minutes and change, and Dia Jenks, the first female skier to reach the finish.  It was an incredibly icy course--doubtless these are the fastest times we'll see all year.  But great fun--the college team was finishing intervals as we began, and the high school has a time trial as we finished.  All together there must have been 50 skiers up at Breadloaf trying to go as fast as they could!  Special kudos to Sara Wesson, first-time TTer, who finished strong, double-poling across the line.
