80 mph... In pink!

For Melissa's 30th birthday, she wanted to go watch the national qualifying rounds of the skeleton up at Park City. Noelle Pace (who was in our ward until the most recent split and the reason Melissa thought it would be fun to go and watch her) ended up winning! From what we understand, she'll be on America's world cup team and be able to compete in the next Olympics. Attached is the craziness of going down a sheet of ice on a couple pounds of metal/plastic at over 79 mph. Go Noelle!



What's really amazing is that there are not any yellow streaks on the ice. Apparently no one from our family has gone down the mile-long track.
