2007 John Day Race Start

The John Day Memorial Citizen’s Cross Country Ski Race places an emphasis on “Citizen’s”.  Former Olympic team skiers have participated in past races and we expect very competitive skiers.  However, no race experience is needed and the wide course and friendly competition has room for all levels of skiers.

 

The race course is machine groomed for skating and track set for classic skiing.  The course is relatively flat with gentle rolling terrain and views if a racer chooses to look up.   All race events are held on the same course, with longer events accomplished with more laps of the 5K loop.  The race uses a mass start with classic event skiers just behind the freestyle skiers.

 

The 5300 foot elevation is high enough for good snow with air still “thick” enough for comfortable breathing at race pace.
