weekend bliss

Spent last two days on the ski's. I felt not to bad really, still plenty of work to do as always. Got some classic intervals done today which blew the cobwebs out good and proper. Nothing like finding your own little place and smashing the uphill trail and then cruising back down only to start the process again.
Hopefully some more snow will arrive soon as we need a top up. A few rocks sticking out around the place always in the corners ready to scratch the bases of your ski's. We might even make the effort to head up to Falls Creek later this week to get in some distance training (both in driving and skiing) if the snow that comes falls in good amounts.
We took Grier yesterday for her first visit to the snow. She was checking it all out dressed up like a little polar bear. Got her in the Chariot which was the best money I spent in a while, we even saw somebody else out there with the same set up. The Chariot is a pretty amazing system that can do many things. Took a bit of getting use to dragging 10-15 kilo's of extra weight but it was worth it (extra resistance training) and once up to speed you barely new it was there, but it did keep you honest on the uphills. Grier seemed to have a good time between sleeping and a few times there was a giggle or 2.

She was snug as a bug in a rug, smiles all round for anyone wanting to say hello.
