an indoor racing team gives you an opportunity to pose for spouses who
love taking pictures of their loved ones in skinsuits. Teddie, Howard
and Angie are members of the Standard Division with Team Oaks. Visit the
team Web site at
www.teamoaks.com
and see how fun it can be to belong to an indoor speed skate club. |

| Girlfriends
who speed skate together travel together. A can't-miss race is the Long
Beach Marathon in Southern California. Angie, Teddie and Laura are
readying themselves for the start of this exciting race that takes place
in the fall in Southern California. |

| Being a member on a speed team certainly has its upside. Part of the curriculum of an Eddy Matzger Workshop includes learning how to be a functional teammate. To find out more on Eddy's clinic, visit www.skatecentral.com | |
| Every Monday during the outdoor racing season, fitness and speed skaters come to Portland International Raceway to skate a 4k, 6k or 8k race. For those skaters without someone to draft with, they choose to use the event as a time trial, trying to better their time each week. | |
