Mass Start 60 Format

8:00am Zero (for all participants)

9:00am 7.5km Mass Start 60 – IBU Classes, Open, & both genders in the start.

MS60 course will utilize the cutoff xc sprint course for all competitors for a roughly 7.5km event

Bibs 31-60 will shoot on first lap

*seeding will be done by Sprint race times by the Jury

Note – At present we expect fewer than 50 participants, so we can combine all, but we could also choose to run the IBU classes on the full xc sprint course & then run the Open after completion on the cutoff xc sprint courses again. This would increase the distance for the IBU class to closer to 10km, but the Open could be a very small event with just a handful of participants.
