Learning how to skate again has its challenges. First, you must find balance. Everything that you do in derby hinges on balance and angles. I have a handle on NEITHER of those concepts. I feel so much like a new pony...finding its legs. I imagine it's quite a comical sight to see. Wish it was as comical to FEEL.
Today's boot camp...well...was very fun...very tiring...I am pooped out. They tried to teach me how to fall...but overall...I think the falling taught me. My ass is killing me!
We skated various drills up and down the length of the rink. I feel often..but kept getting up for more. Considering that was only the 2nd time that I have been to Boot Camp...I thought I did really well. I sure as hell am tired of eating shit.
The coach was kind enough to tell me I did a great job at picking myself up and moving on. He believes in me. He believes I will get it. I KNOW I will! I refuse to get my ass kicked by a pair of skates.
