8 to 10 March 2013

Final result

Innerkrems is a really beautiful place for a Middle and Long Distance Championship, and despite the difficulty of the trail in high mountains all mushers enjoy the race.

However, as the mountain may be dangerous, today with the heavy snowfalls and the fog, organisers decided to cancel the third heat for security reasons. This was the only reasonable decision.

As a consequence, here are the 2013 FISTC European Champions:

MIDDLE DISTANCE

LONG DISTANCE

Congratulations to all participants and to the organisers for this beautiful race.

Final results

Innerkrems is a mythic race for all mushers who love distance races. The trail is magnificent but quite hard but when you arrive on top of the mountain you have one of the most beautiful views ever. There, thanks to Gasthof Raufner and Bernhard Moritz and his friends, we have been able to organise our 2013 European Championships Middle and Long distance.

On the first day the weather was nice but not cold and the snow was a little bit soft but all mushers enjoyed the race. Is is no surprise to see many longtrailers (20 teams) who spent the Friday night at the bivouac, always a nice evening. They started from the bivouac for the second heat but this evening they share the musher dinner with all the other mushers who run in middle distance.

This morning the weather was sunny and not too cold, in the afternoon there has been a little bit of rain that quickly changed into snow. However, during the race the trail was faster than yesterday.

As we had a little communication problem yesterday, we give you the leaders in each category after this second day:

MIDDLE DISTANCE

LONG DISTANCE

And congratulations to all participants that make this race a remarkable event and to the organisers that are top level as usual.
