Is what I do for my Skating considered training?

[FSWer]

Say,I've always wondered to myself if what I do for Skating when I go for Public Skate IS INDEED considered training? Would you all use training to describe what I do? Thanks.

Not the way I use the word, but other people might disagree with me. I only say I'm "training" if I'm working towards some specific goal - a competition or a test, for instance. Otherwise I just say "practicing".
