Up here in the ''great white north'', Canada that is, the weather does not stop us from going out to play! But sometimes the effects of the weather are obvious. Photos are of the winner of the Mad Trapper snowshoe race held in Lowe, Quebec.

Wow - I love the expressions too. Bit too frosty for me! But guess he is obviously dedicated to his sport. Good on him (me, I will stay inside where its a lot warmer!). TFS.

At least he looks like he's having a good time....I've never seen a runner in the cold with a smile before, frozen beards, frozen mustache...but no smile.
