Wisconsin Nordic was out in force at the first Tuesday night race at Elver. Check the results--KT and Christian each earned first place in overall Women's/Men's 10K freestyle! Jesse and Sebastian weren't far behind. Very impressive, you guys. Next race maybe the team can take complete command of the "podium". To anyone who hasn't skied an Elver race, they're fast and fun, not to mention cheap practice for more serious races.

Elver race schedule and info

The race schedule for 2007-2008 has been posted. It is tentative and many of the race websites and details (including entry fees) are not confirmed yet. Team members are free to choose to ski in as many or as few of these races as they like.

Stay tuned for updates to this website for the 2007-2008 season, including race and practice schedules. If you are interested in joining the team, please e-mail the directors.

The team turnout at Elver yesterday was huge! The snow was excellent. Several members participated in the 5K and 10K races. Results are here.

Hard to believe with all our snow and sub-freezing temps, but the organizers of the Noque just announced that they will likely be moving the finish from the City of Marquette to the Forestville Ski Stadium, due to a lack of snow in town. Course distances would be 45K and 20K. The rest of the trail is in excellent condition.

The first practice of second semester will be held this Tuesday night. Meet at the University Fleet parking lot at 6pm, and we will travel to Elver Park for the Tue night race at 7pm. All are welcome, whether you want to race or not. We will plan on being back at about 8pm. A more concrete practice schedule will be posted later this week.

Saturday, 8pm at Sara Stalland's house. See e-mail for address.

The plan is as follows:
Pizza and meeting at 8pm. If you can, please try to get to Sara's house as close to 8pm as you can. Before the dancing starts, we're going to discuss practice next semester, races, the Birkie, and spring break. If you want a say in any of this, make sure you're there. Those coming late, please let us know your opinions when you get there.

The theme is as follows:
Where did you get such great spandex? We expect everyone in their brightest, finest, most intense spandex. Let us know if you need a suit—we may have extras.

To bring:
A couple dollars for pizza if you would like to partake, and perhaps even a treat to share. We will be providing beverages.
