I agree w Sessy. I could not hope to compete against *any* elite skater b/c I am not at that level. I would make a fool of myself. Remember Eddy the Eagle? How about that swimmer who was a few laps behind and trained in a hotel pool? If I were magically that good, that would be different.

It's bad enough competing against people my own level, never mind elite skaters! Train on the same ice as, arguably, but they are them and I am me and between us is a huge gulf fixed.

I think it would be so much fun to skate against somebody that is famous and is an amazing skater. You probably have a 1% chance of winning, but you could just go out there and have fun. Also you would get to have the bragging rights of competing against one of the best!
