Thank you!!! You hit the nail right on the head for me, as well. So many of us skate as much as we can - I do reasonably well with 5-ish hours a week. If I'm really lucky, 6 hours. It all goes by awfully fast now since I started working on moves - 20 or 25 minutes of the 60 minute session are gone by the time I even get to freestyle anymore. Haven't run my program to music in months. I wish I could add more, but the reality is I'm already getting in as much time as work and personal constraints will allow. (And there are plenty of adults who can't even squeeze in my amount of ice time, so I'm not really trying to whine here.)
