She trains every day from Monday to Saturday; there is a free day every Sunday
in the moning, she spends 2-3 hours on the ice and in the afternoons, she exercises
in the gym. Ann thinks that hockey is a fast and interesting team sport.

two years ago but now he prefers snowboarding. He says that snowboarding
is more exciting and more fun than skiing. Mark snowboards from the beginning
