COTTAWA ELOAD/EMEND Duathlon Results and Pictures

By:  Megan McTavish   XCOTTAWA.CA

Thursday night was the 3rd XCOTTAWA.CA Duathlon held at Nakkertok, back by popular demand.  With a super busy racing schedule, both for NCD and for XC Ottawa this year’s race was held at night.  It was a big success and, for me, brought back memories of the Bailey’s night races at Lappe in Thunder Bay.  Somehow racing in the dark is more exciting and feels more casual.

Thanks very much to Dave Mallory for both grooming and coming up with the fun course, featuring a brand-new downhill corner which was a popular spectating location.

Also, thanks to all our helpers.  Given the small size of our team, we couldn’t have pulled this race off without you.
