Minnesota Olympians

I'm trying to keep my skiing/Olympics obsession confined to my other blog, but it's worth noting today - with just 23 days to the start of the Torino games - that two Twin Cities skiers were named yesterday to the U.S. cross-country ski team: Lindsey Weier, 21, of Mahtomedi (who raced at Salt Lake City in 2002) and Lindsay Williams, 21, of Hastings. A Wisconsinite, Chris Cook, also made the team on the men's side.
