Only a couple more days until the season officially begins! Today was our first practice with most of the non-regionals cross country kids, and the conditions couldn't have been more kick-ass. South Colton is well on its way to becoming a winter-wonderland.
The practice was a relatively low level workout on River Road (the Dam[n] Road!!) It was good to have so many of us rearin' to go, as well as one of the newbies: Ryan. He's only been on roller skis a couple times, and he braved conditions that were as close to skiing as you can get without the skis. Kudos.
We didn't go all the way to the end of the road; some hadn't been on skis yet. Overall, I'd say it was a very good kick-off to the Nordic season, and only a couple more weeks before the whole crew is assembled. Can't wait!
Go Pats,
Zach Russo
