We made it happen! Mega Relay survives rough winter

The winter gods have been unkind to the NYSSRA race schedule. But in the wake of nature's bad behavior came a whole lot of elbow-grease and can-do spirit.  Thanks to the folks at Gore Mountain and the hard work of Steve Tomb, Sam Allison and others in the North Creek area we were able to pull of a great 6 hour Mega-Relay.  The race brought 60+ skiers together, on a challenging 2K loop in relatively balmy weather.   It ended up being a great event for all....and as always...the margins of victory were tiny in all race fields.

Thanks to everyone who brought the amazing food to the potluck.
