And the women’s racing:

Emily Nishikawa of the Alberta World Cup Adademy won the 2013 Black Jack Haywood NorAm Buff Sprints in Rossland, BC. Following barely a boot length behind, teammate Heidi Widmer edged out Rocky Mountain Racer’s Olivia Bouffard Nesbitt in a photo finish. Katherine Steward Jones of Nakkertok was the top Junior Women of the day, breaking off of the front and skiing solo to the line.

With nearly ever top cross country skier and biathlete in Canada in attendance, the 2013 Frozen Thunder skate time trial turned out a competitive field. 4 laps for the women, 6 for the men around a 2.3km loop at the Canmore Nordic Centre. USA’s Caitlin Gregg took the top spot in the women’s race, with Ivan Babikov leading the men. Results can be found on Web Scorer.
