So I keep thinking, "man, I really need to wash me hair," which at first appears to have nothing to do with skiing. Really though, it does. After Eagle Glacier I flew down to Park City to train with the rest of the USST for two weeks and do some physio testing. It is hot here, well over 90° F every day, and we're training twice a day and sweating a lot. So you can imagine that I should probably wash my hair pretty often. But I never seem to be able to get around to it because after training I come back to our condo and shower. Now, normally this is when I would be washing my hair, but after a rollerski my hands are so blistered and tender that the last thing they want to do is scrub vigorously. Especially hair, because now that my hair's kind of long the strands cut into the blisters.

There's a lot of side effects of being a skier that you just don't think of until you actually experience it. Don't worry though, this morning I woke up with all of my blisters turned to calluses so maybe I'm through the blistering stage of rollerskiing again.
