First.

This is a direct copy and paste from a thread on tnfnorth.ca because I like the interlopers comment.

On the women's side Catherine Cormier raced as "Coureur Nordique" so a xc ski club I think? Not sure what that means.

The course was modified from previous years, and more closely resembles the CIS course (more hills at the end of the loop), but still a 2k loop.

Next week the QSSF schools will host the AUS schools at Sherbrooke.

Da Bears are sitting in the aeroport right now, reflecting on a good run and celebration.

Max ran well at the front for almost the whole race and I was leading for a while but fell 5-6 strides behind the rest of the race and couldnt bridge up to them.

The race went out quite slow and all five bears were inside the first 6-7 spots with some CGEP runners and who I think was Joelle Bourgeouis. At 4k the race really started picking up and from that pooint the field spread out alot. It was another good stepping stone for the bears and it was a nice bonus to win the mens and womens races...we got sweet togues!

The Pandas are also sitting in the airport reflecting on their great races!
The race went out quickly as there was a quick narrowing of the course. Hayley just slipped into the front leaving nicole and sarah together with jess being just ahead and terra and nat just behind. Plane is boarding I will make this short....Pandas continued to kick some butt in Laval winning for the team and finishing with:
Hayley 3
Nicole 7
Sarah 10
Jess 11
Terra 12
and Nat 28

Great race for the Pandas who are getting pumped up for Stewart Cup!!!!
3 Weeks!
