[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Skiing is great. It gets you to beautiful locations, is one of a very few opportunities to be outdoors in the winter, and yes, is physically tiring, which I see as a bonus. As PP mentioned, it's thrilling and invigorating in a way few others things I do as an adult are. It feels so great to come in after a long day and soak those tired muscles in a hot tub! It's also very much a family activity - one of the few things me, my teens, and DH all enjoy. My experience is that it is a very social activity. We rent ski houses with friends, cozy up with drinks at the end of the day, and half your time is on the lift, so lots of time to talk.[/quote] Spot on. I started skiing at 40, and love it. I love the exercise, the concentration it takes, the locations, the scenery. It's very social - lunch, breaks, on the lift, apre ski, dinner. That I can't talk to anyone on a run is a bonus. [/quote]
