Cross training

Spent the last two days snowboarding. One day at Breck as a bonus and one at Winter Park. Breck was horribly crowded and commercialized beyond what it was like when I ski'd there my last season. They might as well have put billboards on the mountain to make some extra cash. It was good though to do some teaching which is why I was there in the first place. Winter Park was another animal altogether. I rode some extreme terrain and pumped through some jumps to boot. Even mixed it up with some intense mogul riding. No crowds, a few colds beers, and good company.

My legs feel so strong this year. I have stomped some short landings and walked away solid. In fact, outside of the expert pass terrain park, I hit every jump today at Winter Park. Pretty good feeling. I am so ready to get on my mountain bike. In fact, seeing it sitting on my couch without wheels is a major point of spite for me right now. Or bitterness.

Tomorrow it is back to the gym. I have spin class and hope to hit up my core routine as well. If I can do core Tuesday and Thursday, then mix it in with arms on Wednesday, I should be solid. Swimming will be Wednesday and Friday. If any steam is left in the tanks, I will cram in 7 miles of running during the week. I plan to do spin class on Saturday as well.

So that's all for now. Pretty lame entry but sometimes it is the lonely passage that one must travel in order to achieve a goal.

To note: I pretty much aced my workout routine this past week. And for the first time in 5 years, my body lines are returning. Eat your heart out Brad Pitt!
