Oh the rain!
At about 7:00PM the skies opened up again and the course and racers are wet, wet, wet. Now, the rain has stopped and the night sky is appearing between the clouds. The temperature is still a balmy 13C (a warm night for the mountains)! The lights are on and the racers are cranking out the muddy laps. Stay tuned.

The Course
This year's course is a long one - 20km (12.25 mi), with a total elevation gain of about 2,100 feet. The solo athletes not only completed the usual Lemans run, they also raced a 7km prologue lap from the Canmore Nordic Center down to Main Street, then back up again to the nordic center. Another change this year was having the solo athletes start 15 minutes ahead of the team riders; so the solo athletes started at 11:45AM, while the team riders started at the traditional 12 noon. This was done to allow the racers to spread out more on the course and in the start/finish line during the first few laps.
