Hawley Snowshoe race info & results
Curly's Snowshoe race info & results

The Curse of the No SnōShū was briefly dispelled this weekend... apparently some parts of the Berkshires got a few inches of snow, and the decision was made to hold a modifed Hawley race and the move Curly's Record Run from Pittsfield to Mount Greylock. Conditions weren't great - but from the pictures it looks like the folks who went had a good time.

I ended up skipping both races, unfortunately. I'm currently buried under work, so spending 7 hours driving back and forth just wasn't feasible. Also, since I haven't been able to run on my snowshoes since late January, I didn't want to risk hurting myself (not with the black belt testing a week away...)

I know the folks at the WMAC Snowshoe Series are hoping to make up a few more races between now and the end of March... but I suspect the Season of the SnōShū may be just about done...
