Biathlon Women Get Naked to Raise Money

Bold Beautiful Biathlon

Canada’s female biathletes took off their clothes to be photographed for a calendar to raise both money for their sport and admiration for an athletic woman’s body.

Zina Kocher of Red Deer, Alta., Calgary’s Sandra Keith, Rosanna Crawford of Canmore, Alta., Megan Imrie of Falcon Lake, Man., and Megan Tandy of Prince George, B.C., launched their 14-month calendar Wednesday by roller-skiing through downtown Calgary wearing shorts, tank tops and race bibs and their rifles strapped to their backs.

You can read the rest of the article here.

So what do you think of this?  Should female athletes resort to getting naked to raise money and awareness for their sport?  I  haven’t seen the calendar or heard any of the “naked details”, so I am not sure just how graphic the photos are.  That would make a big difference in my opinion of it.  If it’s just “Rated R” poses, then it’s not as big of a deal.  But if it’s out-right pornographic then I really think there are better ways of raising money.  And is it really bringing attention, and most of all respect, to your sport?

The calendars are on sale at www.boldbeautifulbiathlon.com.

Considering the state of thing these days, posing naked isn’t a bad idea. The girls get to do something exciting to raise awareness and will also have something to show the grand kids

I went to the promo site – the cover shot is nice, not much nudity. I can’t imagine they would even think of going the porn direction. Looks like it will be a tasteful artsy calendar for fans of the girls and the sport.
