100 Mile Nordics represented the local cross-country ski club well at the Second Coast Cup 2012/13 Regional Series, reeling in several top-10 finishes.
Attracting several ski clubs, the races were hosted by the Whistler Nordics at Whistler Olympic Park, Jan. 19.
Kirsty Bock, who also skis for the UBC Nordics, won the Junior Women’s 10-kilometre classic event, eclipsing the second-place time by nearly three minutes
Camille Barton also climbed to the top of the podium for her first-place result in the Pee Wee Girls’ 1.65-km distance. Emma Law took fourth place in the same large field. Lucas Barton crossed the finish line in seventh position in Pee Wee Boys.
The Bantam Girls’ 2.2-km race saw Logan Law finish in eighth place and Lauren Popadinac was ninth.
Local Nordics Club events co-ordinator Lauren Bock says this race was just the second time racing for some of their skiers.
“They did very well. Skiing in Whistler Olympic Park was special. It is a classy venue and snow conditions were ideal.”
Club secretary Tracy Moore travelled with the club and assisted them in waxing skis.
