Cross Country Skiing

 Over the past few last weeks we have been cross country skiing. It has been fun and given me a good workout. It's harder than downhill skiing because learning the technique was harder than downhill skiing. You have to use all of your muscles in cross country skiing and the skis for cross country were much different. The cross country skis are much more flexible and difficult to move in than downhill skis. Everyone fell quite a bit because it is difficult to keep your balance and the snow was unfortunately very slippery and slushy as well which helped us fall. At the first class I didn't do so great, but I improved significantly over each class. I think it was the same for the rest of the people in my group we all improve steadily, kept on trying and had fun at the same time. I had a good time cross country skiing, but I would prefer downhill because it is more fun, exciting, and there are more runs. I wouldn't mind going cross country skiing again, but I would hope next time there will be more runs and better conditions.
