Some people who are good trail runners just don't get the hang of it and fall all the time. Snowshoeing you kind of have to be more centered. You have to be able to rock from side to side more. Instead of just going forward, it's a little bit of a sideways step to it. You've got these big things on your feet. |
We do have a lot of walkers (at the race) because it's fairly short and fairly easy. We have a lot of first-timers. That's how a lot of people get started. |
