(Note: this is one of six galleries of pictures for the entire week; go up one level, to "Sports" to locate the others.)
The 2008 US National Cross Country Ski Championships were held at the Michigan Tech Nordic Trails in early January. Here are competition shots of the sit ski sprint competition on Friday, Jan 4. The race included a pursuit heat -- after the first heat, startiing times for the second heat were established to make it more likely that all the racers would near the finish at the same time. Photos appear in chronological order. For the fastest search, if you have a relatively fast connection, change the "style," above right, to "all thumbs" and bring in thumbnails of all the photos. Also, consider just cruising and trigger the slide show option in the upper right corner.
These pics may be downloaded for a fee for personal use, non-profit publication and news use. A higher download fee applies for commercial publication.
Other galleries available here feature competition and awards podium photos from other events, along with general pics of the stadium activities and volunteers.
High quality prints and photo products may be ordered through this site, and a portion of the sales proceeds will benefit the Michigan Tech Nordic Trails.
