I love ice skating...I haven't been in about 5 years and I always fall, but it's so fun!
1I love ice skating too even though I'm a bit of a klutz...I wish I could do it more often!
But it's nice to see that winter hiking is quite the workout; my sister and I will take her dog out for a walk in the woods when we're together on holiday breaks.
2i really love SKIING! aah!
3We never get any cold weather here! I live in South Carolina and it was 80 degrees today!
4I wish that I didn't hate cold weather!
5There's definitely a difference in the types of cross-country skiing. At least there should be. Skate skiing is a killer, more intense than "regular" cross country but both make you work. Not sure who decided it was a good idea to ski uphill...
