Take a 12-mile ferry ride from Rockland, Maine to North Haven Island at the end of October, and you might find yourself watching the Maine Winter Sports Center’s (MWSC) annual Lobster Roll rollerskiing race.
The perfect roads and low traffic, “make for one of the most scenic rollerskiing experiences possible,” according to Andy Shepard, President of the MWSC.
On October 30, athletes from MWSC, Bates, Colby, Bowdoin, UMO, UMPI, along with other individuals, undertook the fourth annual 15km freestyle race that is also known as Maine’s collegiate rollerski championship.
Russ Currier (MWSC) led the men’s field with a winning time of 36:54. Second place was taken by Bates’ Lucas Milliken (37:58), while Sam Tarling (MWSC) rounded out the podium with a time of 38:46.
Gretchen Sellegren of Bates led the women’s field with a blazing time of 42:27. Sellegren was followed by UMO’s Lauren Turner (46:20), and Colby’s Emma Donohoe (46:33).
