There are still races, who knows what the snow will be like this year. Lots of teams doing more dryland racing. You heard the January news from B&Q right? And ATAO and Otter Run also posted on Patreon about their changes, I believe the posts are free.

Each day, they do #Dryland then go to rhe pool for the in the water instruction. This program saves lives of kids. The 3rd leading cause of death for kids in this age group is drowning. Sadly, not all schools get Swim and water safety instruction.
