Join us at the Outdoor Center for a season-opening freestyle sprint competition held in memory of our friend and mentor Jim Rodrigues.

The Rodrigues Sprints are an all-comers “Queen’s Court” sprint competition. Competitors will race a 1.5k sprint qualifier and then be seeded into 6-person heats based on qualifier time. Heats will then go off every 3 minutes, with the top 2 finishers moving “up” to the next fastest heat, the middle 2 finishers remaining in the same heat, and the last 2 finishers moving “down” to the next slowest heat. Winners will be decided after 3 rounds of heats, so everyone has a chance to race three rounds of head-to-head competition.
