Hallelujah, the girl can skate!

My skating was delayed until today, but Anth and I hit Oaks Park earlier this afternoon. After some wobbling and thinking too much about what I was doing, I stopped thinking about it and did some dang confident skating. I was totally feeing 8 again. It was amazing. I started forgetting that I had skates on and was just kind of living on them. This is such a good start.

And with the good, comes the bad. I am so out of shape. I could only get a few laps in before my legs started shaking and my shins were burning. Anthony and I both noticed that we were using muscles that have not been used in a long, long time. My morning cardio workouts are beyond necessary.

The day also involved a slushee, a corn dog, and Anthony successfully shooting the duck once.
