Although cold, it is quite beautiful watching the sun rise over the oval.
Up early this morning to participate in the long track speed skating time trials test event. Although I am inputing race results in the computer, and didn't really have to be there, I attended as I know so little about the sport. The first hour was in a nice warm classroom with a review of the event. Then it was outside in -22 degrees celcius as volunteers practiced their jobs (with volunteer skaters) on the oval. (Heather, I noticed the sun began to shine in the classroom window at 8:30 AM - getting earlier every day). After watching for about an hour, I was so glad I am volunteering for a nice warm inside position.
