rollerskiing

the coolest thing ever, when the crazy addicted nordic skiers strap skis that have wheels to their feet and ski the non snowy 8 months of the year. it's harder, and getting honked at is a day to day thing. not getting hit is work, but we don't mind. the best rollerskiiers are from Massachusetts.

i get up at 7:00 every saturday to go rollerskiing.

nordic skiing

coming in two forms, classic or skate, nordic skiing is the original and hardest way to ski. you use every muscle in your body, and race 5-50k. an average practice for high school is 10-15 miles.

classic is a back and forth motion, primarily using your arms
skate is similar to skating on ice, except you also use your arms some, but mainly legs.
there is no stopping because of....
too cold
too long
bad wax
bad snow
sore muscles
darkness
season (skis with wheels)

i wish i was nordic skiing all the time!
