ANCHORAGE - How long would you be able to hold up if you had to ski for 24 hours?

There were quite a few who did just that at this year's SKAN (Ski Kincaid All Night) 24 race, where cross country skiers ski Kincaid Park all day and all night.

The competition finished up Sunday morning.

CBS 11's photojournalist John Thain caught up with a few of the skiers in the race. Take a look.

This is impressive coverage of a crazy only in Alaska event. Good job Channel 11 and thanks to the organizers and timer Bob and the NSAA groomers!
