Did a short loop in Adelboden while waiting for Christine. This was not my day, felt sluggish with little strength to push upwards.
I have a new Garmin and still can't download it, rats!

I was giving Christine another lesson in cross-country skiing. Unfortunately, she fell at the beginning (standing still!), and we had to keep it short. But she managed some downhills without falls and losing some of her fears.

After my cross-country skiing went to find Urs's group for some downhill skiing. I had to ski fast to catch up and find them, and then to come back again to the place up on the mountain at Chuenisbärgli, Adelboden, where we had our fondue.
Afterwards night downhill on the World Cup slope. The conditions were perfect and it was amazing to see our 17 lights of the head lamps coming down in one lane.
Again, a wonderful fondue followed by a memorable downhill at night.

Teaching 2 yoga classes with good flow and one core conditioning class.

The back is finally better, yoga is always good for it.

Another run, almost the same time but felt better. Only the right knee is still acting up. Light snow showers after a week of springtime weather. All the crocus and spring flowers are up. So nice to see colors again.

Teaching two core conditioning classes. Step warm-up (even the seniors!) and then a series of pretty hard abdominal and low back strengthening exercises. Finishing up with a quick circuit of proprioception and balance training (mini tramp, small hurdles, pillow and hedgehogs). Lots of fun!

Week minus 3 with my classes, the count-down has started!
Normal Monday with a core conditioning class and some balance-strength exercises as a circuit.
Later, the Nordic Walking class going up to the pretty look-out. I guess it will be the last time we're coming here officially as a class. Very warm and very pleasant to be out.
