Attention NorthShore Inline Marathon skaters. Two weeks ago we announced our new elite wave format for our inline marathon this year. Today we want to announce our 2022 skaters who qualified for our 2023 elite wave as well as clarify how the placement is determined.
Anyone on these lists will automatically be signed up in the elite division that corresponds with their gender. If you are on this list but would prefer to skate with a friend in the advanced wave or a recreational wave that is fine. You can start in the divisions below what you are qualified for, but you can't start in a division above. For example, an elite-qualified skater can start in the advanced or rec waves, but an advanced skater cannot start in the elite wave.
If you are not on this list but want to skate in our elite wave next year you can qualify for next year's elite wave by finishing in the top 10% of your gender class in this year's race. If you are not on this list, but think you are an elite-level skater you can message us or email us why you think you belong in the elite wave. We call this a "petition". Please write "elite petition" in the subject line of your message and our petition committee will review each petition. Please include your best marathon time in the last 3 years or any other relevant information.
