Nice reportage David - clean shots, nice light, and friendly people and monster.
You must have had fun there. More covers in the making I sense ;-) Congrats! Amitiés Philippe David Young wrote:
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...)http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Polarthon1.htmlWhile most have proper speed skates, many kids are followed by their dads, on hockey skates.http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Polarthon2.html Some even try to race on figure skates! http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Polarthon3.html Nobody said the run to the ski hill would be easy... http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Polarthon4.html By the end of the ski, many were exhausted... http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Polarthon5.html While others simply found it a challenge to stay upright ... http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Polarthon6.html C&C welcomed, as always.
