Race Update
The cold weather has posed a
challenge for us as organizers of the MEC Vert180 at this time the race is
currently scheduled as planned. The weather is predicted to warm up by tomorrow evening. But, our primary concern is keeping you as races
safe. Canada Olympic Park is currently closed but is planning to open at noon
tomorrow. Please check your email for further updates tomorrow if the weather
situation changes we will notify you by email. We have decided to make the
following changes/suggestions to help keep you safe and having fun while you
race:
-The solo category will change from
a 3 hour race to a 2 hour event
-Please bring goggles as the skin
around your eyes exposed to the cold can get frost bitten
-Please bring a neck warmer or some
form of face coverage
-Please minimize all exposed skin
-Bring a down jacket and other warm
insulating layers if you have them.
-While we want you to challenge
yourself if you feel uncomfortably cold at any point use good judgment and take
a warm-up break. You will probably even perform better by taking a short break
if you are feeling overly cold.
