Great Britain's Austin Musgrave finished sixth in the men's cross-country 10km freestyle on Friday but made quite an impression by exercising his right to bare arms out on the course. Musgrave warmed up with his upper half sheathed like everyone else but when it became go-time, he relieved himself of the constrains presented by skin-tight layer, which allowed his pole-holding arms to swing easy and unencumbered.
The race-time temperature was around 15-degrees Celsius so it wasn't particularly uncomfortable out there. Still, anyone who has taken a tumble onto some exposed skin into snow knows that it hits entirely different.
