Thanks to everyone that came out to EMPO Club champs at Grafton Lakes! It was a chilly and breezy day, but the sun peeked out a few times and the rain held off. We had really good turn out and people mostly came back happy with how they had performed. The woods were rather wet from the recent rainfall, but they were also quite open and great for traveling.
New and returning EMPO members were eligible to be named Club Champs if they ran in an available age category, and the results are shown below, along with the overall splits. My tracking my not have been perfect, so if you believe there is an error let me know.
Special thanks to Phil for course consult and printing, Gabor, Laszlo, Doug and Chloe for flag pickup, and Sydney for help with course design and vetting.
Watch the website for details on Ski-O (hopefully Lapland lake in December if there is snow), and the Empire State Games in Lake Placid Feb 6-8.
Thanks for a great year!
Kevin
