Cross training
2009 February 2
I woke up this morning to 10cm of snow covering everything outside – something that doesn’t happen in York too often! Rather than risk heading out on the road bike, I thought I’d make the most of the weather and went up to the attic to dig out my dad’s cross country skis. I got quite a few funny looks walking down the road to York Racecourse with a pair of skis over my shoulder (particularly as its totally flat and when people see skis they immediatley think of downhill!). I had a fun hour sliding around a lap of the field in the sunshine. I suspect I won’t be able to walk tomorrow as the muscles you use are totally different to biking ones!
