"Nothing hardens the muscles and makes the body so strong and elastic, 
nothing gives better presence of mind and nimbleness; 
nothing steels the will power and freshens the mind as cross country skiing. 
This is something that develops not only the body but also the soul -- it has a far deeper 
meaning for people than many are aware of."

Fridtjof Nansen 1890
