Olympic Snowshoeing in 2014?

So how about snowshoeing as an Olympic sport in 2014?! We signed up for a race Prep clinic at Grouse Mountain (open 24 hrs during Olympics) and I'm starting to wonder. Apparently, as part of a major initiative to place the sport of snowshoe racing in the global spotlight, Mount Seymour Resort in British Columbia will host the World Snowshoe Invitational on Saturday, Feb. 27 – one day before the 2010 Winter Olympics closing ceremonies in Vancouver. Cool.

Not sure how we can get ourselves invited to that but we'll definately be at the Grouse Mountain Yeti Classic March 13th! The Yeti will be there too.
