I went cross-country skiing for the first time on Friday evening with Adeline, who attends our book discussion group. She's amazingly athletic for someone her age; I envied her powerful legs Friday afternoon as mine began to feel like lead. Saturday was not a fun day of recovery for me. I could hardly move! But it was worth it, and I'm hoping to do more of it in the future. The woods were just beautiful, and I haven't had such a good exercise since last summer. I can definitely see the benefits of an outdoor Winter hobby.
It is a really enjoyable sport. Not only were my legs sore the first time, but my bum!
ReplyDeleteI thoroughly enjoyed our chat last night.
