More great results from snowshoe races this past weekend. Ben Nephew won the Olde Salem Greens Snowshoe Classic in Salem, MA. Jim Johnson and Abby Mahoney (pictured) made it two wins in a row with first place finishes at the Turner Trail 5 mile in Pittsfield, MA and Amy Lane got another strong 2nd place OA female finish at Turner Trail.

Great stuff! More on Abby's win at Turner...
Consecutive wins:
Abby Mahoney has now won the last 14 races she has run in in the WMAC/Dion Snowshoe series over the 2008-2010 seasons. This tops Kelli Lusk’s record of 13 consecutive wins in races run from 2004-2007. The longest “true” consecutive winning streak is by both Lusk and Mahoney (with 3 each). “True” is defined as actual consecutive WMAC races, not just WMAC races that the person actually ran at.
Seeing Peter running a race, and winning it, made my week. That's awesome.
