Snowshoe racing's popularity continues to explode in New England --- witness the 191 finishers (and 214
entrants) at the first Olde Salem Greens Snowshoe Classic --- the 2nd largest snowshoe race ever in the
Northeast United States. The team from Salem Recreation Department and Dungeon Rock Racing put on a first
class event; something that snowshoers are used to from it's New hampshire rebirth under acidotic RACING's
Granite State Snowshoe Series.

Ben Newphew led one of the strongest fields in Eastern Mass/New Hampshire snowshoeing history by pulling
away from acidotic RACING's Geiff Cunningham and Charles Therriault for a 22:41 - 23:27 - 24:12 win.

Gail Gordon of the host Dungeon Rock Racing took the women's title in 32:33. Renee Bousquet and Sarah
Phillips took 2nd and 3rd respectively.

acidotic RACING's 70 year old Gary Reuter traveled down from Maine to win the 60+ title in 36:37 - quite
probably the top performance of the day --- well except for the team putting on the race...more
