Got up to the mountain early, one of the firsts on the gondola. Snow was a lot better than past two days of skiing. We tried the other mountain today as well, which is more difficult. Did some double blacks and black diamonds. felt pretty sore after in the calves and quads.

Did a snowshoeing hike today in order to take a break from skiing but to get in physical activity. It was a lot harder than I had originally thought. With all the extra weight from the clothes and the snowshoes, it was difficult. We also chose a trail with a lot of climb which is harder to get up in snow. Overall it was very challenging and got my heart rate up.

Got up the mountain even earlier today which led to a lot of the runs to be free which meant fast skiing and more runs. Stuck to intermediate but stepped it up from yesterday. It was freezing cold and visibility sucked. Snow was a lot better though.

Got up the mountain really early so had a lot of the runs to ourselves for the first hours. Haven't skied in a year, so really worked some muscles that aren't used to it. Stuck to intermediate runs today. Snow was alright

Relay race running the third leg. Third and first leg had the most difficulty with the second being designed for advanced beginner. Ran with two other girls: Siri and Ariel. More like a sprint due to the location at a community college but got experience with terrain of a Chinese garden and navigating small paths, a college campus, and a forest behind the campus.
