2011 Togwotee Winter Classic, Race #2 Results & Pics

The TWC Race #2 was met with good conditions despite concerns that it might be soft and sloppy. Overnight temps in the teens firmed up the trail nicely and temps in the 20s to low 30s made for a pleasant day on the trails. For the first time we offered two distances and this format was a hit with the racers.

1st - Carey Smith - 3:43:00 (35-Mile Men's Course Record)

5th - Dave Bergart - 4:44:00
6th - Katie Engelman - 5:00:00 (1st Woman, 35-Mile Women's Course Record)

25-Mile Results
