January 28 – TNT – Glen Eden – GS Race

In a father-like-daughter Shazam! Jonas Israel dominated the field of TnT racers with a blistering fast run to take first place.  Hot on his heels were Erick Begin and new-to-TnT, Peter Hickey taking 2nd and 3rd respectively.  The Merry family crowded the podium with Ingrid blasting across the finish just ahead of sister Eleanor.  In a demonstration of true Girl Power, Ingrid and Eleanor finished ahead of the majority of the field of men

A big ‘thanks’ to Head Coach Brian who managed to overcome persistent technical problems through sheer force of will.  Thanks to the rest of the coaches, apprentices and of course our amazing race administrator, Juliette Lamb, for pitching in to make for a fun evening!

For our 2nd slalom race of the season the U14’s headed to Mansfield with cloudy skies and mild temps.  While the long steady pitch of Staircase was a solid challenge for us, the Milton Heights racers did very well as a team and finished 2nd in overall combined team points.  Well done!!!
