Corey Stock of New England and Cole Morgan of Intermountain (who also celebrated a birthday today)...

Even when captured static in an image these guys still look fast. A look at the Junior National sprint race through the lens of Boulder Nordic Sport and FasterSkier’s Shane MacDowell.

J1 women’s winner Isabel Caldwell qualified 19th for J1 girls,...
