Vértex 24h - 2006

A 24 hour ice skating race for teams and solo skaters in Östersund 10 - 11 Feb 2006

Photos taken between 5.53 am and 6.27 am.

It snowed heavily during the night, the organizers made a great job clearing the track.

I had another spell of "relay skating" 3.30 - 5.30 am, thereafter I took these photos
before I made an unsuccsessful attempt to sleep.
