Calgary and Banff

Day 27

We stay out by the U of Calgary, so we take a cruise by the school. We find the ice rink which housed the 1988 Calgary Olympics, and note they rent ice skates with public skating later in the day. We will be back. Early afternoon Sully, Steve & I put on our speed skating attire (looking for low wind resistance) head to the rink. We are inspired by Anton Ono, and rent 18inch long speed skates and hit the oval. the small track oval doesn't appear to have enough room for us. We obtain speeds of 20-30 mph without much effort. We missed our sport. Maybe the Senior Winter Olympic Committee is looking for competitors. Sunday football match ups weren't that good, so we hold our energy and wait for Monday Pats vs Cinn game.
