I skated
That was a lot harder than I thought. Mentally, for the most part.
First, I will point out the irony of taking about 20 minutes to get on all of my pads and skating for 10 minutes.
Let me just say that the combo of the crash pads and the azzpad is mighty hilarious. I suppose that each pad system alone is not noticable under clothes, as they claim, but together look like I'm smuggling a small child under my skirt. It's pretty silly. I could only see it partially in a my semi-obstructed mirror, but I need to get someone over here to get the full view and tell me how truly ridiculous it is.
I was all finished padding and lacing up and I had some fleeting thoughts. I am 33 and I just broke by butt. I'm not in good shape and I'm significantly over weight. And I'm about to stand up and go skate again. It struck me as crazy for a few moments until I started rolling.
I have lost a lot of strength and even more confidence, but I loved the feeling of being out there. I was unsteady and not sure of footing at all.
But I did it. And I'm SO happy that I did. I've been fighting it in my head all day. I'm very happy that I just went and did it.
Did I mention that it didn't hurt my back/butt at all? Yep.
