Xtraining- downhill skiing.  There was finally some fresh snow!  A bit wet and heavy but not too bad up high.  The base is still skimpy.  

My son was in a lesson, so I got to ski all day with my daughter. She is now good enough to ski about anywhere!  We had a great time.  I especially liked watching her ski past the "Experts Only" and "Double Black Diamond" signs (the run really wasn't that extreme) while a group of men were contemplating weather they could ski it.  Hey guys you were just shown up by a little girl!  My little girl.   ;)

I wonder how this will affect my legs for speed work this week?
