Across the
Empire State 12 snowshoe races
are being
collectively organized as a series for the 2011-12
snowshoe season. Each race has its own race director
and event management. Individual points will be awarded for
each race using a very simple
scoring system.
For 2012,
the DION series will be more competitive with your best six
(6) individual preformances determining your point
standings. A half marathon distance has been added as an
option as well. Prizes have not been determined, but the
top 5 male and female points leaders are eligible to take
part in a drawing for the prizes. Including a new pair of
DION racing snowshoes. Drawings will take place at the
championship race Feb. 19th.
Here is the 2012
DION Empire State Snowshoe Racing Series Schedule... To check results,
photos or other information on specific events, click the underlined
Race Event Link. Visit the event website (not this one)
regularly to check for changes (Winter Weather changes things, we
are flexible). The dates listed on this page are good for now, but
check the individual race website often... Thanks!!
