Wonder why the Sonot Kkaazoot race director hasn’t updated his reports from the Chena River? He’s in Norway skiing at World Masters. Here’s his report submitted this morning:

Thanks to all you busy people as I relax over here in Norway.  The racing and events are great.  Beitostolen is a great place to go for a ski vacation.  The weather was great for yesterday’s classic and free style races.  Cool, clear and fast, around 22 degrees and sunny.   

Bruce Jamieson (NSCF vice-president) was in a massive pile-up at start of 15 km freestyle race (see far right of photo)

After being buried in the bottom of the tangle, Bruce ended up on bottom with a broken pole and bumps and bruises. 

BUT, got a pole later on down the trail and finished the race! 

SCUM truly do rise from the bottom.
