Moments

I hit the wall. It knocks me down.  I curse, get to my feet, and skate to the wall again.  Again I find myself on the floor.  And again. And again.

Finally, I make it through. Past the wall. Through the pack.

And then I hear those words:

"Lead Jammer!"

Holy shit. That's me?!

Congratulations!

I've started with The Gold Miners Daughters our team here in Timmins, though I'm likely to go into the #1 position rather than jammer!

Still just fresh meat though I bought my skates last weekend, I got Antiks :)

Good for you, Kirsty!

A good pair of skates makes all the difference. I got Rebels. Saving up money right now to get better indoor wheels. I'm so in love with how tiny and fast my outdoor wheels are that I want a pair of indoor wheels that do the same thing.
