To activity!
I decided that the best
way to fight off jet lag was to go for a nice easy (ha!), return to activity classic ski with my parents. Classic skiing is like glorified walking, so you can do it at any pace. I was planning on 'jogging' the route, but the snow was thinking otherwise. With classic, you have what is called a kick zone and if that kick zone doesn't stick, then you are struggling not to slide backwards. The snow was borderline klister (AKA bubble gum), but I wasn't in the mood to have sticky hands for the rest of the week, so I went with a bit colder of a wax. After double poling every hill because I would have slid backwards (not allowed to duckwalk with my knee yet), I think I will use klister next time. My mom, on the other hand, had scales (like skins for classic skis), so she was asking why I was struggling on every hill.
