[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Just a couple of weeks after our big Pond Hockey Tournament (and the same weekend as "The Guts Cup"), Logan Lake held it's winter party ... the Polar Festival. This year, everything had to be crammed into Friday evening and Saturday, for the next day was Super Bowl Sunday! For me, the most intriguing bit was the Polarthon - a 3km Speed Skate, 4 Km Run and 5 km X-country Ski. Quite a challenge at -12C! I've put some photos of it here ... not great shots, and certainly not the quality I'd normally show... they are posted for the benefit of the Kamloops Speed Skating Club. Still, I though a few of you might enjoy a gander at what passes for excitement in rural Canada. http://www3.telus.net/~telyt/Polarthon.htm Comments, criticism welcome, as always.
