Arctic Mark in Stanley Park

The Bench-Reach Contest

Many of the Northern Games involve individual contests of strength, agility and skill. Aaron (my roommate) and I caught the very end of the High-Kick contest, and he told me about the Knuckle Hop, where you have to leap-frog on your knuckles until you can't take the pain or your knuckles are too bloody! In the Bench-Reach, someone sits on your feet and you must stretch as far out and down as you can and place a marker on the floor without touching the floor with any part of your body. Who needs an Ab-Blaster?
