We're having our own winter olympics here in the Northeast. Again. This event is not for the faint of heart or wimps. This past Wednesday it was a 6 hour event for a 2-man team. Friday and Saturday we held lesser events. There were no spectators except for Benni.

| These grippers mean business |
 |
| The ice course is on a steep hill - here about 1/10th the way through the course |
 |
| Chop, shovel, sand, salt. |

| Unfortunately we didn't win any medals |

Oh yes - YakTrax are pretty awesome. I have a couple of pairs for winter use.
OMG. You're living in Hell, down at the frozen center. My sympathies.
It was 70 degrees here in TX today. About damn time.
I need a pair of those grippers too. I almost fell on my ass a few times this winter.
That looks like quite a workout. I'll bet there were some sore limbs that night.
