Racing Round-up: Teck BC Cup

The team had a nice weekend of racing back in British Columbia this weekend - taking on the familiar stomping grounds of the Teck BC Cup series.  This weekends' event was hosted by the Telemark Cross Country Ski Club in Kelowna, BC.  The temperatures were unlike the Okanagan and quite chilly, but the event was well attended and it was particulary great to see the large number of young kids participating.

Saturday featured classic sprints, which the team took as a double-poling workout.  The course was not hilly but still a good challenge on skate skis.  Sebastien Townsend threw down in the qualifier and had the fastest time by a long shot.  The heats played out a bit differently with the CVTC finishing all but two of the top 10 positions in the following order:  Townsend (2), Dupuis (3), Schrama (5), Dandurand (6), Sander-Green (7), Weaver (8), Richards (9), Ferrie (10).

Sunday was an interval start, 10 km skate event.  This is an unusually short distance for Open Men so the boys were directed to ski hard.  The course was challenging, but also a lot of fun.  The climbs were significant with the majority of climbing in the first half of the 5 km loop.  The downhills were entertaining with lots of swooping corners and rollers.  The boys finished 2, 3, 4, 6 (Dandurand, Ferrie, Sander-Green, Weaver, respectively) in the Junior Men category.  In Open Men, Richards won with the fastest time of the day, followed by Townsend (2), Schrama (4) and Lapierre (6).
