Annecy races in Ontario in January
Team member Annecy Hillmuth moved from Steamboat Springs to Prescott, Ontario in Canada this last fall, making it a little challenging to train and to find races. Fortunately the Ontario Telemark organization is working hard to provide telemark race opportunities and Annecy was able to make the trip for one of their races in January. It turns out that Annecy was the fastest competitor by about 2 seconds that day. When asked about the race, Annecy said, “The course was a little chalenging at the first gate, but the rest was straight and since there was not a jump I didn’t have to worry about jump penalties. The first run I came in first out of everybody, with no penalties. The second run was not as good technically. I had a lot of fun and everyone was very nice.”
