practising almost daily 1 month ago

I can do this pretty well in a nice smooth empty skate park. Not sure how well I’d fare in a bumpy, obstacle filled street though!



working on it 2 months ago

I practiced for about an hour yesterday and an hour the day before. I’m super sore today and bruised, but it was so much fun. I can do the basics, but that’s not good enough for me yet. I’m going to keep at it until I’m a lot better!

Started Skating Yesterday 3 months ago

I went for a lesson yesterday and I was told I have talent. Now its up to me to practice on my own so that I can improve.

It’s wonderful exercise, and it looks like so much fun! My boyfriend does it, and I’m so jealous.

Stupid rain 4 months ago

I’m trying to keep on with this goal, but the weather is not cooperating. I realize we’re in a drought, but can it please not rain for a day or two?

I did make some progress. I’m still at three miles for now, but the last time I went out, I stopped because of a time limit, not because I was too tired. Quite a change from almost calling a cab to get back to my car the first time out.

I bought a pair of rollerblades a few weeks ago. I’ve talked with a few friends who used to rollerblade, and apparently, I got a very good price and picked a very good model.

Now it’s finally warm enough to go outside and use them. I’ve been out on a bike trail nearby, and I’m up to three miles now.

I’m doing ok with the moving and the not falling, but I’m still working on stopping.

I went roller skating about a month ago, and had to stop and rest every 15 minutes. Maybe time to get in shape?

My neighborhood isn’t safe, and bicycles are too hard to transport, so I’m going to buy some rollerblades so I can get some exercise.

When I was 12 7 months ago

It was different at first than the traditional skates but once I learned the others were not the same again ever. I find its actually easier to balance on the inline rollerblades.

My parents tried to teach me this when I was little, but I never learned. Someday :)
