How Many Days -- '07/'08

[ski diva]

So how many days did you ski this season? Or how many do you figure you'll have skied, when you're done? Or do you never, ever quit?

I beat the personal record of 52 days I set last year; this week I expect to finish at 62 or 63.

What about you?

 

[SkiNurse]

32 for me w/ a few more days to go!

 

[w.ski]

61 for me. Not sure if that's the end or not - I may be able to get a couple more days in.

 

[MaineSkiLady]

oh well....

Being sidelined from 2/24-3/18 didn't help me out much. :(

Sure was hoping to beat an earlier year of 42 but doubt I will now, at 33, with a few more to go.

The good news is that DH is at 42 and counting, which bests his (non-instructor) record.

I managed 40 days - which is 16 more than last year and pretty good considering the dismal weather in the Mid-Atlantic this year. Next year I want to aim for 50!

Who counts? This is too obsessive for me.

That option is great Ski Diva! :ROTF:

Being one of the obsessive types, I kept track. Fell 1 day short of my 30 day goal, but considering the health issues I was dealing with, I'm really happy with how it turned out. I'd love to set a higher goal, but that could only happen if I can afford to work less or take a late season trip out West next year....

I'm proud of myself. I did 18.5 days this year. Not for lack of trying. I work full time and live in Southern Ontario - not exactly ski country. Still and all, had a great season with 3 ski trips and a couple of days up in Collingwood. I made progress this season and can't wait 'til the snow flies next year.

I did clean up the bearings on my rollerblades this morning and will be out and about next weekend on them (if the rain stays at bay).

 

[SueNJ]

I'm pleasantly surprised--I actually skied 25 days this season. Hopefully next year I'll beat my record from this year.

61 so far. Blew off Saturday at Boyne due to rain and just feeling ucky (actually cleaned part of the house for the first time all ski season ). May go out this coming weekend and still have 2 days coming in May at A-Basin - YAY!!!!

 

[Jilly]

Day 48 today and I think that's it for the season. Anyone want a well used pair of Rossi Z5's. Only 140 ski days on them!!

 

[Ski Spirit]

43 days so far and planning for at least 3 more...that will probably be it unless a trip to Mammoth can be arranged for May(???). Would like to make 50..but that doesn't look probable!!

 

[Robyn]

Just got home from day 34 but I probably have anywhere from 2-6 more in me, depending on how my body feels over the next few weeks.

 

[Pequenita]

I'm proud of myself. I did 18.5 days this year. Not for lack of trying. I work full time and live in Southern Ontario - not exactly ski country.

Aha - so you're my fellow 11-20 person! I'm in a similar boat as you, it seems, plus, as Marigee wrote, I suffered through the dismal conditions in the mid-Atlantic. I feel like such an underachiever on this message board.....The 70+ day divas really need to share the wealth. I mean, seriously!

 

[KatyPerrey]

Day 124 - most likely done - but you never know. If I'm in town I might try to ski with Snowhot in May.

 

[drjoyous]

Hi all--
51 for me so far...and a few more, even though it is getting slushy. Sigh. Next year, I have a sabbatical--plan on 6 days per week during the season...and research and writing at night. It will be a wild year! (man...i'm already counting next year's days. ya think you're obsessive...??)

 

[Xymenah]

Sadly I am going to top out at about 4 or 5 as I am only learning and didnt get up to the hill til the end of feb and being in school with 5 classes and a zillion tests and projects doesnt make for being able to ski a lot :( Hopefully I will get to go away for a ski trip next year on my break and that will give me some more days.

 

[Consuela]

I'm right behind you Xym, at 8 days. And, if I wasn't on this website, I'd be feeling like that was a pretty big number compared to all our friends here. haha

My season's a little different being in the southern hemisphere

So my winter (07) 10 days (Aus & NZ), northern winter (08) 7 days (Japan).

7 weeks till next winter

 

[Lilgeorg]

Hit my age in days yesterday. 65!! Maybe 1-2 yet to do this week.

 

[bklyn]

82 for me, possibly a few more in May.
