Got up on the slopes today. It was great weather and snow conditions. I ditched everyone a lot of the day and did my own thing. Pat and I lost Hannah for a while, we didn’t think it was possible on the run we were doing, but we did. There were quite a few people, but it’s all right. I was fine all day until the 3rd to last run I went down something called Outback which was just grueling. Fun enough, but I got all hot and sweaty and my legs hurt. I powered through though and got a couple more runs in before the day was done.
Tomorrow there will be more skiing. Maybe double more, cause of night skiing on account of the new year. We’ll see. Happy New Year peoples, btw. Maybe I’ll wait 24 minutes to post this so it will be timely.
That excursion to the gym I mentioned yesterday has left my biceps in quite a bind. I slept on them funny, too, I suspect. Anyway, the combination of events means when I try to straighten my arms the furthest I can get leaves about a 25° angle. It’s quite painful. I’m going to try to sleep in such a way as to undo it tonight. Probably won’t affect my skiing much, but at this point it actually could. Poles and all.
Oh, and after the skiing and the dinner eating I went into the hot tub. It was nice. Obviously didn’t really help with the muscle problems, but I wasn’t really expecting it to. Pretty nice. Maybe when I grow up I’ll have one.
