It was fun. I was having a fabulous day where I did not feel worn out after work, and I was walking really well. So I went skiing with a friend and did a great job. Still, I had to stop and rest frequently, because my muscles would sometimes become tired and feel like they would give out, and other times they would feel so spastic they were about to cramp. Actually, the cramping thing only happened with one muscle group: my left quads. No surprise, because they tend to get spastic.
But all that aside, I had a great time and cannot wait to go again! I went on a couple of hard blues. I did not have the guts to go on blacks. Almost, but it looked icy, so I took another way down. Then I went with my friend for her lesson. The instructor commented that I am a very nice parallel skier and should be doing pole plants. So I did some, and she said they were perfect. Haha, a very nice but very lazy skier, that's me.
