Cool Runnings... (the bobsled movie)! MINI Style!

No, but seriously... the Jamaican bobsleigh is all but familiar not having snow to train in, but due to the pandemic they've resorted to even more creative tactics to keep their training going. This tactic is, that's right, pushing a MINI down the road! Peterborough residents have even come out to ask if they needed help, before realizing they were training.




Quote:
We had to come up with our own ways of replicating the sort of pushing we need to do. So that's why we thought: why not go out and push the car?" Stephens, 29, told Reuters.

"We do get some funny looks. We've had people run over, thinking the car's broken down, trying to help us bump-start the car. When we tell them we're the Jamaica bobsleigh team, the direction is totally different, and they're very excited."
