Marathon Challenger Award
With continued support from Toko, Swix and LL Bean, NENSA will continue to offer the New England Marathon Series Challenger Award. Racers who are current NENSA members will need to complete three (or more!) races to be counted for the Marathon Challenger Award. M7+ have option to ski ½ or Full Marathon, with the exception of Freeman Frost where everyone skis 21km.
Use of the M7+ cut-off aligns with AXCS and World Masters standards.
In 2021 -2022 ten skiers (Men - Women) completed the the Marathon Challenge with a limited schedule.
