Event Information. The Coastal Nordic Ski Club invites you to spend a day close to the coast and race, solo or with your sweetheart, at Pineland Farm’s world-class Nordic ski trails. This is a 10K freestyle for club and recreational racers. Race solo or enter the couple’s relay. Couples must exchange a kiss to avoid disqualification! Weekend warriors - challenge your friends and workmates! Parents - showyour kids how fast you are! Junior racers not going to states - extend your season! This race is part of the NENSA Citizen's series.
UPDATE (Feb 4): The race is on and will be held either at Pineland's Oak Hill trail or Libby Hill's Moose Odyssey/Holmquist Hoolow trail. Libby Hill is another John Morton delight and Moose Odyssey, which is the HS race course, has great technical terrain. Libby Hill is located at Gray-New Gloucester Middle School off Rt. 26 and is about 10 minutes from Pineland.
Race in the afternoon too! If one race isn't enough, drive into Portland (30 minutes) and race the Pat Cushman Memorial Sprints. UPDATE: The Pat Cushman sprints are canceled.
Course Information. Two laps of the River Valley loop at Pineland Farms (juniors will do only one). If you’ve not skied Pineland’s world class nordic ski trails, you are in for a treat. Course Map.
Start. 10AM. Mass start, men and women combined, from the stadium (across from the Nordic Center and Visitor’s Center).
