Last Sunday, a group of Craftsbury juniors made the trek to Stowe to compete in the annual Race to the Top of Vermont. The race winds its way up the Toll Road on Mt. Mansfield, gaining over 2500 vertical feet in the course of 4.3 miles. It's an uphill course that tests the determination of even the fittest competitor.

The Craftsbury juniors had awesome results in both the bike and run categories, taking many top honors in their respective age groups. In the 14 and under male run category, Bjorn Westervelt took first place in a time of 44:43, which put him in 23rd place overall! Brian Bushey took 2nd in 14 and under, and Cormac Leahy took 4th. In the 15 to 19 male age group, Matthew Lawlor took 4th place, and 16th overall.

In the 14 and under male bike category, Craftsbury swept the podium, with Trey Jones taking the win and 47th place overall, followed by David Moody in 2nd, and Trey's brother Owen Jones in 3rd. Alan Moody and Sage Grossi finished 5th and 6th.Enjoy some photos from the day!
