SkiErg World Sprints Starts Soon

Skiers: How Fast Can You Do 1000 meters on the on the Concept2 SkiErg?

Mark your calendars: The 9th Annual SkiErg World Sprints will be held November 9-12, 2017.

This 1000 meter virtual race allows you to see how you stack up with others of your age and gender around the world. It’s a great opportunity to put down a personal best for the 1k distance. There are age categories from 12 and under to 80+, and adaptive classes, too. This event is for everyone.

How it works: Race 1000 meters on the SkiErg at your club, school or home, November 9-12, 2017. Post your time to the Concept2 logbook [link to: concept2.com/logbook] by 5 p.m. ET Monday, November 13, 2017. The winners of each age group will receive a special prize; prizes will also be awarded for the top three times in each age group. We’ll also have prizes for the top men and women in three adaptive categories: seated, standing and visually impaired.

If you’re curious about how fast is fast, have a look at the current World Records and last year’s results. It’ll be good motivation for racing!
