Are there any more details regarding the sprint terrain? Specifically, is it shorts friendly? Are spikes or running shoes preferred?

Course notes are being finalized but this is some information:

Pants are recommended.

Thanks for the info. I'll wear pants, spikes on left foot and running shoes on right foot.

Curling?
Now there's a reference that will go way over the heads of the Yanks and Aussies on Attack Point. Good one.

C'mon baby put the rock in the house! Just got the digital converter for our television, and with the new channels, so far all I've watched are skiing and curling.
