derby girl

so i went to my first derby training session this week... although for me it was less derby training, more lets see if i can scoot around the rink without falling over... i'm pretty excited though... and watching the girls race around the way they do just makes me so keen about where i could go with this... it's even better knowing that some of the girls have only been doing it for the past 8 or so months!!!

even though i was only skating around the edge, i joined in with the warm up stretches and drills etc... only problem was that they were done on the ground, in the middle of the rink... lol so there i was teetering around the edge of the rink when they asked me to join them.. err ok... so i toddled in and then looked at them.. err how do i get down? didn't actually turn out to be such a problem but i tells ya, getting up off the ground is going to be the challenge and the one thing that is going to really prove that my legs need to toughen up!

had another good weigh in too, and lost 1.2kg this week.... first time EVER in any weight loss i've tried where my TOTM hadn't badly impacted my loses, fingers crossed i can keep the momentum because down is good... and i'm actually having fun doing it too.... here's to alternate ways to exercise and feel good!
