Update From Yaro Middaugh

Big Foot Snowshoe Race in Traverse City, MI, which was my regional qualifier for Nationals as well. There was a fantastic turn out of 360 participants. They claimed to be the largest snowshoe race east of the Mississippi. Anyway, I was able to pull off the win in the 10 km and was the only shoer to break the 50 minute mark. I couldn't have asked for more from my gear. It's nice to have the optimal equipment. I raced the Vapors and found them to be quick and nimble. They had many admirers!

My second race, the Frozen Torch was smaller, but the same top three from the Big Foot race showed up making it very competitive. Again, I was able to pull it off, but it took a final sprint to do it. I was very pleased with its performance in the colder weather! The Vapors made the steep climbs a breeze and I was able to charge the down hills.

Update from Helen Cospolich

I did the Swift Skedaddle Snowshoe Adventure in Silverthorne last month (10K USSSA nationals qualifier) and finished 2nd overall for women

40th Annual Salomon Frisco Gold Rush 7K Snowshoe Race
A chilly day greeted both snowshoers and Nordic skiers at the 40th annual Salomon Frisco Gold Rush events in Frisco, Colorado on February 7th. Hundreds of skiers of all ages took part in the races throughout the morning, while a hearty group of snowshoers gathered for the start of the 7K Snowshoe Race at 11:30am. A group sprint start led the ’shoers onto a singletrack trail that followed the undulating Frisco Peninsula perimeter. Up and down, we winded our way through the woods with views of Dillon Reservoir and the empty Frisco Marina. While not a technical course, the singletrack provided great variety, and the climbs challenged even the most fit competitors. Tim Hola of Littleton won the men’s race in a time of 31:58. Helen Cospolich (Redfeather Elite Team) of Breckenridge won the women’s race in 35:56. Both winners beat their closest competitors by more than 2 minutes.
