Skiing into shape - applause for video showing young mother’s bikini run with her baby

The mother seems to be effortless as she skis a cross country sprint, while pushing her baby in a pram in front of her. 

The footage is from a resort near Petropavlosk-Kamchatksy, capital of the Kamchatka peninsula. 

The young woman, whose name and age are not given, wears a bright pink top, purple sport shorts, a hair band and a pair of sunglasses, while the baby is properly equipped for the cool ride, with several layers of warm clothes and a protective cover.  

There is still plenty of snow in woods around the city, and with temperature veering from 1c to minus 5C this is quite a daring ride to make. 

The video was made by the woman’s husband, who appears for a couple of seconds at the end of the clip. 

‘What a clever mother, I feel really proud for her. This is surely a great way to raise a healthy next generation, and to have fun on a family weekend together’, said Katerina from Kamchatka in comments to the video. 

Yelena Mordovskaya added: ‘Hey yes we’ve seen this girl skiing! Well done her!!’ 

‘They kill five rabbits with one stone by staying fit, getting a first tan, spending time with their baby, keeping the child healthy and having fun! Wise family’ - said Anastasia. 

In the comments people suggest that the video was most likely made on Lesnaya skiing base which has a picturesque 20km ride called ‘Ski Trail of Health’. 

As the family skis uphill, camera captures stunning view of two volcanoes that can be seen from Petropavlosk-Kamchatsky.
