Glad you enjoyed it, I miss the satisfaction of breaking a barrier, it was black and White when a red was a challenge, then a black, then an itinerary etc. Now it's less tangible but still huge fun. I ran the the black from Furgg to Furi in Zermatt this morning about 9.30am as Italy was shut, and overtook everyone on it, a mix of improvement, perfect piste and abandon. Did it again 90 minutes later to a much lesser effect. I get frustrated when tired, guess I have to work on my fitness and leg strength now. Not as much fun as setting a target of your first red or black, but a target nonetheless.
Congrats, the big M is great, I'll be there in 10 days :)
Yep. It was an epic hike but I was in no condition to ski and it was the only way off the mountain. But, I had to get back to it the next day as there was no way my head was going to get the better of me. I've only been on skis a very short time and only once a year at that and so long as I progress year on year I'm happy. Absolutely loved Mayrhofen and next year's target is to have 2 ski holidays. Easy for me, not so easy for OH to get off work. May have to arrange a boys trip. :D
