2008-2009 GMNC Race Series POSTED

The Grand Mesa Nordic Race Series is a series of four cross country ski races with awards for each race as well as for the cumulative point winners for the whole series. The series emphasizes ski racing for fun and personal fitness for skiers of all abilities.

All races will be held on the Skyway Nordic Ski Trails on Colo. Highway 65 on top of Grand Mesa.

Registration for each race will be only on race day in the Skyway parking area beginning at approximately 10 AM. Entry is $10 for Grand Mesa Nordic Council members, $15 for others. Skiers who race on 3 of the 4 race dates will earn a special commemorative prize, most likely a T-shirt again, to be delivered some time after the series completion.

Series Scoring: Male, female, and age group Series winners will be based on cumulative points awarded according to finish place in the Winterstart 5K Classic, Skyway Skuffle, Grand Mesa Classic, and Mesa Meltdown 20K. The Winterstart 5K Freestyle and the Meltdown 5K do not count for Series points. The tiebreaker is finish place in the Meltdown 20K.
