Fourth-year veteran Ian Weir earned two medals as the Varsity Blues Nordic ski team opened their 2013 campaign at the Ontario Cup race at Walden this past weekend.
A native of Stratford, Ont., Weir posted a solid start to the weekend, finishing second overall in the men’s 11km classic race, missing gold by only 2.3 seconds in the 36-minute race.
The kinesiology major then continued his dominance on Sunday, winning the men’s 15km skate to earn the gold medal.
MBNA believes that with personal drive and the right kind of support, someone who thrives on the playground can one day ascend the podium.
