Day 2 - 2009 Summer Classic, Calgary

Ben Southee has continued his good LT debut form to skate a 1:13.32 1000m and a 37.87s 500m in day 2 of the 2009 Summer Classic. Ben's 1000m time is within the qualifying standard for the upcoming season's world cups. Promising results so far from his first LT competition.

Kiwi Blake Skjellerup also continued some good form with a 38.66s 500m and a 1:52.06 1500m.

Both skaters are presently residing and training in Calgary hoping for Olympic selection for Australia and New Zealand.
