Default Can you damage a golf cart motor (elec) by

spinning tires and being pushed?
Long story short, we are snow/iced in (in Alabama, no less) and so I rode a few miles down the road yesterday in the golf cart. Coming back, I couldn't make it up a slight hill, so some folks were pushing while I was giving it gas and the tires would just spin. Happened 3 or 4 times, then the motor just stopped. I had to leave the cart and walk home (fortunately only a block) but now I'm worried I may have done permanent damage to the motor.
Anyone know anything about this?
