Go Marty, Go!
The Spin / Second Sole team is more than meets the eye… This past weekend, four of our members raced in the Nordic Flurry Cross Country Ski Race at Chapin Forest, just east of Cleveland. It was cold and icy, making for arm-burning uphills and lightning fast downhills.
Mike Schaefer and Brian Stern are local hot-shots in both the skating and classical disciplines, and showed it on Sunday. Schaefer took first in the 5k Classical race, and second in the 10k Skate. Brian was forth in the 10k.
Just as importantly, XC racing rookies Kevin Krol and Marty Mason showed up to give this a shot, and it sounds like hilarity ensued. Both had a great time, and wrote about it below. Huge props to these guys for branching out and taking a chance on a difficult day. Well done!
Read reports from Kevin, Mike, and Marty below, plus more pictures from Kelly Mikolajczyk. Thanks, Kelly!
