1998 saw a full team representing Canada in the Cross Country events once again, as 5 males and 5 females took to the trails near the village of Hakuba, just outside of Nagano. The Canadian team was led by Vermilion, Alberta’s Beckie Scott and rounded out by veteran Yves Bilodeau (the team wax technician who qualified as a relay spare) who got his first Olympic start 10 years before in Calgary.
A severe flu that hit 8 of the 10 team members, coupled with gruelling trails, and drastic changes in snow and track conditions laid waste to pre-event expectations. The ’98 event at least served as an Olympic introduction for 5 of the team members that are expected to return for the 2002 Games in Salt Lake City.
