COMING SOON…Johnny Klister Monday Morning Race Reports: Shit Lists vs. Killing It.
There’s a host of good things happening in skiing: Kikkan, the US team in general and the clubs that support these folks, specifically. It makes it tough to stomach when the little details of well run races aren’t always happening. To that end, we need to celebrate the good and constructively point out the bad. M. Since the motivation to do a good job doesn’t seem to be enough to help folks step up their A-game, JohnnyKlister.com is beginning the Monday Morning Race Report. We want you to send in photos, descriptions, and the bits and pieces that make racing great or not so great. Some examples.
On the Killing It List:
- The JOQ in Ironwood, Michigan had volunteers holding blankets over the starters prior to their start in cold weather.
- The clutch announcing of the JO Sprints last year (complete with regional accents).
- The Super PRO quality of the coaches meetings at last year’s Spring Series, along with the Super PRO everything else they did.
On the Shit List:
- Let’s start with the 11th hour start list change at the Mayor’s Challenge, not to speak of “standoff-ish” coaches meetings and a general disregard for the fact that THESE RACES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY IN THE US!!! (Dudes, get your start lists together.)
- How about that college race in Maine has a certain chief of race that certainly didn’t show up at the race either day? (Broseph, show up.)
Keep it fair as you all submit. On one hand, this is a place to settle the score, but let’s keep the level of dickishness to a bearable minimum, yes?

Lew is happy.
Too little snow, nor warm weather, nor Koos-troversies, nor anything else can take Lew down.
