“Northerns” Race Report

Lindsay Walsh reports from Saturday’s Northern Cross Country Championships. After such a day as today…there would surely be a fight to write a race report?  It had the makings of an epic…the camaraderie, the fighting with guide ropes, the mud, the trees falling, the hobo kidnapping, the mud, the dubious music taste of the driver, …
