The first Winter Teva Games are here! We are all familiar with the fun and excitement that Teva brings to town every spring. Now they have stepped into the winter. There are competitions for all skill levels and activities. The Vail Nordic Center is the site of the 5K and 10K Freestyle Nordic races. There will be almost 100 racers of all skill levels battling it out for Teva gold. Over the past two weeks Tony, Kirk and I have spent extra time widening the track and keeping it in top condition to accommodate all the racers that will take to the track on Friday. With the lack of snow this season it has taken extra time and effort to keep the conditions top notch. We have spent hours shoveling and plowing snow on to the track to keep it skiable. I’ll be competing in the ski mountaineering, citizens comp, of course. If you are not entered in any competitions you should at least be sure to check out some of the activities, I’m sure it will be fun for spectators and athletes alike.
