Seward Park Series Week Two

April 11, 2015 by David Longdon Leave a Comment

There was a large turnout for the second week of the Seward Park Series’, especially the 5:30 and 6:00 races. The 5:30 race is for first-time and category 4-5 racers; the 6:00 race is for category 3 and 4 racers; the 7:00 race is for category 1-3 and professional racers. (In amateur racing in the USA, category 5 is considered “beginner” and category 1 racers are more experienced, skillful, and athletic.)

Scott Miller (Husky Racing) is currently at the top of the 5:30 event with 10 points, Ryan Trimble (HSP) is at the top of the 6:00 event with 11 points, and Galen Erickson is at the top of the 7:00 event with 9 points. Ryan and Galen currently hold the snazzy fluorescent green leader’s jersey for their respective races.
