Last night, I went out to the track behind my student village to watch a local juniors ski race. The kids were 6-13 years old, and it was a blast to see the little ones cruising around the track with their parents running beside them, cheering "Hiya! Hiya!"
There is a joke about Norwegians being born with skis on their feet. Seeing the
one thousand competitors at the race last night only solidified that stereotype. It is a real possibility that the winner of the 2022 Olympic gold medal will be one of those kids!
