| Day 1 at Mt. Van Hoevenberg |
1) Lake Placid is beautiful year round.
1) Ski pants are AWESOME! I am going to wear them at home and never turn my heat on again!
3) Men only talk to me in Lake Placid. A guy talked to me randomly on Saturday and then skied with us all day!
4) Learning to snowplow isn't too bad. Learning to turn.. hasn't happened yet.

| Day 2 at Mt. Van Hoevenberg |
6) Hello hip flexors!
7) No bridge should cross a creek without guardrails.
8) I am sooooooo slow at XC skiing!
9) My "screaming while riding down hills on my cyclocross bike" thing definitely translates to skiing as well!
10) I can't wait to go back!

Those are much better xcountry trails than I'm used to. Great winter workouts!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so fun!! I had pretty much all of those same observations/reactions when I started. I'm a fairly advanced downhill skier, but even a tiny hill on xc skis had me completely freaked out.
ReplyDeleteI am so bummed about the rain and warmer weather too. It's still early in the winter, hopefully there should be plenty more time for xc!!
