Carleton Nordic Ski Team invites the local skiing community and its athletes to participate in our race this upcoming week! Feel free to share this information with anyone in your networks who might be interested.

Thursday, January 9th starting at 6pm, the Carleton University Nordic Ski Team will be hosting the Mooney’s Bay Night Sprints, a 3x800m team relay on the North Field at the Terry Fox Athletic Centre. This fundraiser race will help offset race costs for the Carleton team this season.

This race is a great opportunity for a quality race experience right here in Ottawa, accessible to anyone who can ski 800m! Help support local racers competing at the national and international level, and expose your athletes to opportunities to continue skiing in post secondary.

Race Information:

Register as part of a team of 3, or as an individual (and be added to a team onsite)! Choose from two categories to compete in; Fun and Fast. Teams can be any mix of ages/gender.

Registration cost is 15$ per person and there will be no refunds. Registration fees will be collected on the night of the race when you pick up your bib. This event will also be cash only – we ask that you bring exact change if you can. Registration will be open until January 8th through Zone4 atΒ https://zone4.ca/event/2020/0F6AC892/

As this race will be taking place in the evening we suggest you bring headlamps and brightly coloured, or reflective, clothing! Prizes will be given out to the first place team in each category. This event will not be timed.

Hope to see you on the 9th!
