With Calgary’s Olympic Ice Oval shutdown, Hiller twins bring training home
PRINCE GEORGE – It’s 7:30 in the morning, and while much of the city is calm and quiet, the slicing of blades on ice echoes through the air at the Outdoor Ice Oval.
It’s here that some of our regions’ top speedskaters have been practicing over the holidays, many of which have spent much of the year in Calgary at the Olympic Ice Oval. Two of them, none other than Prince George’s Hiller twins.
Nico and Lina have embraced the opportunity of coming home. With Calgary’s Olympic Ice Oval shut down due to mechanical issues, the pair have found ice time here at home, but also a mental break from the reality of things pertaining to the pandemic.
