Hi, it's me Rev or Sweets - your choice. I've been skating for 1.5 years, I'm a member a wftda league and play in mash-ups for another rec league. I passed my minimum skills test on 3/21/18, so I decided to set another goal to help - a 10k! I want to record every step of the way, to remember how far I've come as I go.

I haven't been on my health game these past few months, low water intake, unable to keep my eating under control, missing practice, and no cross training. It's time for me to get back into my routine. I mean prepped for the week, I'm ready to get back to cross training as much as possible. I have new goals- short term and long term. And the only way to get there is to treat my body as if it were that of an athlete's. I am after all an athlete, even been I have a bad practice or game. Even if I cat do all three practices on a Sunday. Even if I don't sign up for the bootcamp or the mash-up. I'm still an athlete and it's time to let myself be one.

Update: I did it.
I've been extra silent for the last few months. I started my semester and completely fell off the fsce of the earth. But I got my 27/5 and passed my msr. I'm thrilled, overwhelmed and ready to keep growing in this sport. Onwards and upwards. (I'm in yellow)

1-14-18 positional positional positional
I am the worst positional blocker. So today I went out on a limb since only 3 girls showed up to my rec league practice and asked if we could work on it. It was so hard and I felt like I was so out of control but my feet are moving faster even though my upper body looks sloppy. But I'm staying in front and am able to slow the jammer down which is huge because like 2 weeks ago I couldn't even figure out how to stay in front of someone without a brace.

1-13-18
I'm not going to lie, I've been kind of intimidated by starting week two of my couch to 10k especially after having the flu. My mind told me I'm going to have to start all over that here was going to be no way I can run for 90 seconds at a time. Well I went put today, not wanting to one bit. I had to tell myself over and over that it's only 30 minutes and that no matter what I'm moving and it'll make me better. I succeeded at this. I made it through the work out, I was scared but I did it. It wasn't nearly as hard as my brain told me it was going to be. I'm proud of myself.

1-11-18 forgotten due dates
I told myself last night that I was going to run and go to practice today. I woke up and realized I have a 6 hour continued education course due at midnight tonight for work. So all of that is off the table but I did run through a hiit work out as soon as I got home and now I'm off to sit on the computer for 6 hours and scrape by the skin of my nose.

1-10-18 big girl league
I'm feeling little disappointed in myself today. Since I had to miss Sunday practice I missed being able to test out of the new girl program. So now I'm having to go through the entire program from the beginning with a new group of girls. So it's a little disheartening but I get the opportunity to test out soon and they put me with a skater who's returning who's more matched at my level. So I'm holding onto knowing that I will be able to test out soon. This experience has made me want to push harder to get the few skills that I need down to test out. It all just clicked tonight that I need to push myself to grow and that's the next step. So tomorrow I wake up I run and tomorrow night I go to another practice and push hard and work on those skills.

Oh my two man wall and communication is getting better. I also didn't feel the need to sit down at all through out. So the running is paying off even though I had to take a week off. Onwards and upwards!
1-9-18 over the flu and back at it
Tonight was my first night back at my rec league’s practice. I love my home, it felt really good to work with my girls again. I ate shit as usual but I wouldn’t want it any other way. I’m a little bummed to find out that my co-pilot on this two league adventure decided to drop the ranked league but it’s okay. I’ll make it

I went to work for 5 hours today and now I'm back in bed. RIP me
1-4-18 sick in bed
I went to bed last night feeling fairly accomplished after practice and was pumped for my first run of my second week of couch to 10k. I woke up at 5 and my throat felt like hell fire, obviously didn’t go for a run in this weather. I’ve been sleeping on and off all day, being sick always makes me nervous about losing progress. But there’s nothing I can do but try my best to fell better and pick back up where I left off.

1-3-18 rcrg
Back at it after moving to a new house and my first practice back and with my big girl league. I'm finally getting plows on this sports court. After the first week of couch to 10k I felt less winded and less thirsty?? I was on the floor a ton but that's a good way to start it off, I get put of my head about falling right off the bat. I'm stoked.
