Rollerski racing returns to the paved trails of the Northeast Kingdom with the 2025 Lost Nation Roll. We are switching things up a little bit this year to make things safer for all racers. The event will still be approximately 10km of individual start skate racing, but we are going to cap the field and change the schedule to keep things as safe and controlled as possible.

The Basics:

Length: 10k (4 laps of 2.5km each)

Start time: 9:30am

Start interval: one skier every 30 seconds

Field size: 100 racers max

Cost: $25

The 2025 Changes:

In addition to the field cap of 100 racers, we will also be starting the registration process with a password to allow regional elite racers a chance to get registered, then we will open things up to the public. The field will be limited to 50 men and 50 women for the first few weeks of the registration window. On July 10th we will remove the gender quota and open slots to anyone.

In addition to the entry limit, we are also tweaking the day’s schedule slightly. Racers will not be seeded into start blocks, with approximately 25 athletes in each block. Within a block racers will start at 30 second intervals. Blocks will start approximately every 20 minutes. This will hopefully keep on-course traffic to a minimum and reduce the overlap between experienced roller skiers and those who are newer to the activity. Click here for a more detailed schedule.

Lunch will also be included in the entry fee. We are working to coordinate with our friends at the Farmer and the Spud.

Register over on SkiReg.com. The password protection will come down on July 1.
