Hi David,
Nice shots as always - and a reminder to Esther and me why we don't
live in Canada in the winter time!!
Bests to Rose,
Cheers
Howard

Subject: [LRflex] The Polarthon
Yesterday was the start of our week-long Polar Carnival.
The lead-off event, is the Polarthon... a 2.5km skate, 2.5km run and
a 7.5km X-country ski. Younger kids, do it as a relay team, though
some go with the adults and "run" the whole course. It is run on one
of the few, long-track speed skating ovals in western Canada. Carved
out of Logan Lake, itself, it is a regulation 400 meter oval, as
opposed to the 111 meter short-track ovals found in most ice arenas.
So we start with the skate... (Note the wig ... most participants
don't take the Polarthon too seriously...)
