We drove up to Rockland and took the ferry out to New Haven today for the 3rd Annual Lobster Roll. This event is always a great time - great rollerskiing in a beautiful setting. Colby, UMPI, and several other Maine athletes joined us (Bates couldn't make it due to swine flu concerns, unfortunately). I was pretty pleased with how the team looked - it's clear that our returning skiers have made a big jump in fitness and technique, and our first-years are getting better every week. Not sure what the results will show, but we skied well today - another step in the right direction. Post-race was nice too - lobster for lunch and a presentation about sustainable energy production on the island, followed by an afternoon recovery ski before the ferry back to the mainland. Thanks to Andy Shepard and Maine Winter Sports Center for making this day happen!
On another note, congratulations to Colman for winning the Maine State Cross-Country Championship today! He's been on fire lately - the next few weeks will be exciting. The men won the team title, and the women finished second - full results here.
