skiing seems a great way to keep in shape in the winter and the Birkie looks like an enjoyable event.
The resources look very good also.
Hal Higdon's article in Fall 2000 issue of "Chicago Amateur Athlete" recommends "classic style" for runners who cross-country ski (i.e. it
uses similar muscle groups to running). Regardless of what style I end
up using, I'll be sure to start out with lessons.
thanks again!

Thanks for any advice you can give!
