Parents Weekend/Eyes on the Pies

It's been a busy weekend for our team. Yesterday we did an OD combo workout (a classic rollerski around Runaround Pond followed by a trail run at Bradbury) and then had brunch at Thorne with the team parents visiting for Parents Weekend. Today we took about half the team to Pineland for the Eyes on the Pies skate rollerski race. We were joined by Colby and Bates, among others. After the race, the college teams headed over to Oak Hill for a running pursuit. It was a beautiful day and a nice workout opportunity against some good competition. No results right now - hopefully I can get ahold of them soon. Photos coming soon - for now, here's a great one from Steve Fuller:

I have no idea what Jeff is doing in this photo.

Lots of people had other things going on this weekend. Elissa was perhaps the most hardcore - she ran from Orr's Island to campus on the way to brunch, about 15 miles. A few others competed in a Parents Weekend 5k fun run - from what I hear, Chris dominated, crushing the egos of countless parents. Lastly, the XC teams raced at NESCACs today - men 5th, women 6th. Full results here.
