Information About Tomorrow’s Race

This is a fun event to close out the racing season. In the race two person teams will compete, by skiing alternating loops of 1.4 km. There will be two divisions, Men’s (two males on a team) and Mixed (at least one female).Of course there will not be awards for either division, this all about fun and bragging rights.

You can register as a team, or as an individual. Individuals will be paired up the morning of the race, before zero.

Beginners are welcome. We will try to pair beginners up with more experienced teammates.

After the relay race we will hold a short mass start (3 loops, 4.2 km)

Format of the Relay Race:

  • Each team will complete six laps of the course (3 by each skier).
  • The teammates will alternate laps.
  • There will be five shooting stops, the first skier will shoot three times
    (prone, prone, standing), and the second skier will shoot twice (prone,
    standing).
  • On the second skiers third loop, they will ski to the finish line.
  • Each team will be assigned a target for the race. All shooting (including
    zero) should be done at this point.
  • Relay rounds will not be used in this race (in other words, you only have
    five bullets for each shooting stage).
  • A penalty loop must be skied for every miss.
  • The tag zone will be located immediately after the exit of the penalty
    loop.
  • The race will begin as a mass start, the first team across the finish line
    after six laps is the winner.
