This Sunday saw the fourth running of the Southridge Time Trail with the largest group of skiers yet. Strong winds out of the South definitely challenged the skiers, but nonetheless strong performances and a fun time was had by all competitors. If you missed this round, don’t worry there will be a second running in November.
Overall, the course record still stands at 17:55 by Rick Schaaf with a full list of results on our google doc.
The course profile can be viewed on Strava.
Just a reminder our Tuesday Strength Training at Dee PT starts this week! If you haven’t signed up yet, please do so today to avoid price increases!

We have had few great weekends of roller skiing already, so come out and join us this Sunday where the Masters will be roller skiing at 9AM from Airport Park in Colchester.
Moving forward instead of weekly blog posts, we will move to a google doc to list and update all the latest training schedule information. So please make sure to bookmark the Master Training Schedule web link or Google Doc itself to access the latest Masters information.
Craig Pepin extends an open invitation to anyone who finds themselves near Burlington at the end of the workday on Tuesday. The group meets at 5:15 on the Route 127 bikepath in Burlington. A small group of us plan to do this every Tuesday, except in cases of severe weather, until the snow flies. Between 45 minutes in an hour of rollerskiing. Hope you can join us, if not today then some other time this fall.
