Adult Worlds Is On

The competition that many unofficially refer to as "Adult Worlds" - a.k.a. the ISU International Adult Competition held annually in Oberstdorf, Germany - began yesterday.

Adults aged 28-78 from all over the world compete, and it seems like everyone enjoys the experience immensely. Olympic silver medalist Midori Ito has even done it (and won it!) in the past. It's amazing to see how popular adult skating has become around the world, and how empowering it is for the participants. Rock on!

I wish I could have done it this year, but was not a very realistic prospect given the logistics. It may never be a realistic prospect...

But I have a friend competing (break a leg, Mary!), and they have a neat-o free live stream!
