Day 4: pursuit

Hello again, here is what happened today. We woke up extra early for warmup this morning because the race was earlier this morning that is until it was delayed an hour! The race was supposed to start at 10 but instead started at 11 because of the weather. The delay wasn't too bad because it gave us all more time to focus and get ready to race. I'm sure most of you know but for those of you who don't the start times are based off of our finish times from yesterday. The races started fairly quickly with a four lane system where each competitor would start five seconds after the person beside them went. The trails today were very fast, with good snow and glide. Today everyone but Nick skied the 1.5km orange loop five times with four shooting bouts whereas Nick skied  five loops of the 2.5km green loop! Like yesterday the races were over fairly fast which was a good thing because it was pretty chilly out there! Once the morning races were over there were awards outside, once they announced all of the category winners there were prizes for whoever shot clean ( when you shoot all 5 targets in one bout ) these winners include Sarah Duncan, Nick Dumontier and myself! I personally am very proud of my results for today and on the behalf of all our athletes I would like to thank all of  the volunteers, parents and coaches for all of their time, encouragement and most of the time their tolerance we would like you to know just how much we appreciate everything you do for us and that none of this could be possible without you! Once again here's the link for the Dropbox I'll add more photos once I've sorted them out so watch your emails in the next week! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ncqfibleuo81065/AH3CfRy7by
