Craftsbury BKLer Finn Sweet tackled the Santa's Revenge race at Sleepy Hollow on the 28th. From his father:

"Finn woke up last Saturday with a little hunger in his belly to race so we headed to Sleepy Hollow in Huntington for the Santa’s Revenge BKL/Citizens race. Finn was the lone Green Racer on the course. The results were a bit jumbled, but from the spectator perspective Finn got 3rd overall for the 3 lap/3.6 k race and 1st for his age group.  He was very happy about the race, feeling as though he got faster every lap." Strong work Finn!

Meanwhile, up in Westmore, several Craftsbury racers represented the team at the Mt. Hor Hop. This event is organized in part by Craftsbury member Peter Harris and his family, and is a great early season test.

The Mt Hor Hop may have the best vistas of any nordic race in New England!
