Summer Fun!

Image
Our season officially finished off with our end-of-the-season banquet, where we come together with the Alpine team to celebrate... and more importantly, eat! We also gave out some awards, chose our captains for next year, and took some classic pics.  2016-2017 Captains: Shelby Ahrendt, Liza Dawley, Leif Hanson & Mitchell Miller 2015-2016 MVPs: Nora Gilbertson and Leif Hanson Matt Haugen Award: Bri Paulson  Banquet!  A beautiful spring rolled in, and us Nordies took to the roads, pools, trails and tracks. Between mountain biking trips, road biking adventures, track meets, the annual Challenge of Champions, a full team game of mafia, our Culver's rollerski adventure and the St. Olaf Triathlon, we kept ourselves plenty busy.  Culver's Rollerski (or rollerblade... or bike... or run...)   St. Olaf Nordic takes Triathlon  Speaking of adventuring, the team has been busy this summer, covering all corners of the country, as well as the globe....

Seeley Has Hills

 What? The St. Olaf Nordic Team is alive, and even writing a blog post? Yes. Yes, we are, and apologies from this senior skier for the dearth of blogs. To whet your appetite for an update on the whooooole racing season up to Nationals which are happening this week, here are the sage words of Mitchell and Christopher on the Seeley Hills Classic, a race from the very beginning of the season: Mitchell: To the dismay of the St. Olaf Nordic Team, the MN College Champs were cancelled due to mildly uninhabitable weather. But with some quick scrambling, Chris, Rebecca, Leif, and Mitchell were able to scrape together an exciting weekend of racing. Special thanks to Leif, who channeled his inner soccer mom to shuttle us to Stone Lake, WI in his stylish minivan.

2016 Season Recap

Image
       Brace yourselves, people. A whirlwind recap of St. Olaf Nordic’s 2016 season is coming straight at you, only five months late (college kids are very busy people, or so we like to tell ourselves). Without further ado, we begin with the season’s first big races at Senior Nationals!   The 2016 Senior Nationals took place on Michigan Tech’s challenging trails. Evan, Nora, and Piper made the trek to Houghton to test their skills against America’s best. In the 15K Classic race, Evan finished 162nd. Unfortunately, a nagging injury forced him to pull out of the 30K Freestyle race early. Piper and Nora had great success, finishing respectively in 136th and 97th in the 10K Classic, and 117th and 130th in the Freestyle Sprint. The most impressive result of the week was Piper’s 44th (21st U23!) place finish in the 20K Freestyle race. Next, we move to the Pre-Loppet! Evan Pipes An empty weekend in early January allowed the Oles to dabb...
