Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from Bowdoin Nordic! We're back at it - got the band back together in Lake Placid, and we're fired up to race US Nationals these next few days. The first two races (10k classic and skate sprint) also double as the St. Lawrence Carnival, so we're jumping right into our season. We've got Natalie and Mirra back from their semesters abroad (Chile and Iceland, respectively), so this is the first time we've had the 2025-26 version of Bowdoin Nordic all in one place - stronger together! Natalie prepped for carnival season with a 25k trail race in Patagonia and the fabled AMH Cup Relay. Meanwhile, Mirra was back up to her old tricks, qualifying to represent the US for the third year in a row at the biathlon Junior World Championships! Trials results here. We've also got some alumni in town - Jake Adicoff '18, Renae Anderson '21, and Morgan Richter '24 are all racing this week, and Rachel Zafren '18 and Lily Johnston '20 are here as coaches. Plus we had Adam Carlisle '25 drop by for a visit this evening - all kinds of old friends around Lake Placid. It's going to be a great week, and we can't wait to get started. Here's a link to the livestream for tomorrow's race. Live timing and results at Bullitt Timing as usual.
