The Alternative Elfstedentocht: Racing Climate Change
A skater whose face mask has formed an icicle participates in the Alternative Elfstedentocht on January 25, 2019 in Weissensee, Austria. The Elfstedentocht is a legendary Dutch speed skating race and a victim of global warming: it hasn't been held in 22 years; the longest such period since its inception. Beginning in 1989, organizers have held an "Alternative Elfstedentocht" race in Weissensee, Austria, where the ice is reliably thick enough to skate the grueling, 200km tour.
