I competed in the Madison Winter Festival Super Tour Sprints this past weekend. These races were held on the streets of down-town Madison, WI where they trucked in tons of snow to make a sprint course that circled around the capital building,
It was an exciting event with lots spectators and events going on. The festival is put on every year by CXC. I have to say that I was extremely impressed at the amount of hard work put in by all the volunteers. CXC has an incredible community of people that all give sooo much to this organization and it was great to be able to race here in Wisconsin's Capital.
There were two sprint races; a classic and a skate. I placed 8th in the classic and then medalled the second day with a 3rd place finish!
Thank to Renee Callaway for all the great photos!
I am now in Hayward getting ready for the American Birkebeiner happening Saturday the 25th. There are lots of events to attend this whole week as everyone is getting ready for the big day, "Birkie Fever" they call it. Can't wait!
