The Ducli in new duds.
Despite the dense field of beard-sickles, shivering bodies, frosty breath and frozen thumbs the HRT news team was able to capture some limited coverage of the Lake Placid Loppet 2013 edition. As always, HURT skiers were treated to a festive atmosphere, great trails at Van Ho and some stiff competition. A great number of HURT faithful came out to challenge what is widely considered one of the most challenging marathon courses around. It was the HURT debut for new team additions Owen Putnam, Adam Chrzan and the Ducli-race suits whose wearers until now had hid in the junior race fields inconspicuously wearing lime green and pink leopard colored speed suits. There will be no hiding now!

It was a "Divide and Conquer" type weekend for HURT nordic as they make a move to close the points gap on the strengthened Peru squad. HURT sent a number of athletes to the JNQ races in Holland Patent and Old Forge. A great job was done by the Huneck boys/father and the good Luban. (Not the other punky one) Full results from the weekends races can be found here: http://www.nyssranordic.com/currentresults.html
The HURTathon is still scheduled for Saturday Feb.2nd and there is still time to register. https://www.skireg.com/Net/3439 There is a chance the location will change due to weird weather this week but all registered participants will be notified via ski-reg if this happens.
