Today I went ice skating!!! Been long enough I had to remind myself how to skate. But I also was able to leave the wall a lot faster than I have in the past (I was letting go of it before I'd even gone half the way around the rink!) And I did NOT fall at all! There were many children that were trying very hard to kill me (by getting in my way, which would trip me and then I would die) but I avoided it!! Got kinda out of breath by the end, especially since by then i was used to the skates enough + it'd cleared out enough that I could take opportunities to Zoom (my favorite thing to do while skating, going fast). Good thing I bike so much (generally speaking, less so in the last month) bc the cardio wasn't much of a problem. My ankles though..... the place got new rental skates that are stiff as Fuck and it hurt my ankles fr 😭 enough to have me like. Well now that I have a car I kinda wanna just... go ice skating more regularly, if I can. It's pretty out of the way but also I've ALWAYS loved ice skating. And if I do go more regularly, maybe it'd be worth getting my own pair of ice skates... probably more hockey style lol bc I dont care about anything with figure skating. Never gonna try to get into it. I like ice skating for the exercise and for Going Fast. It's just fun for me!
Miss going in warmer months tho hfkshdkd I've gone a good handful of times for birthdays throughout my life (as early as my 10th birthday, from what I remember) which is in May and So. There are less people ice skating. Bc ppl r just less interested in it in the warmer months. Not me tho I love it year round. And I look forward to being able to skate without worrying about the 2 dozen children trying so hard to skate into my path at all times.
#speculation nation#today i refamiliarized myself enough that i could go decently fast. but i wasnt the best at turning or stopping. especially abruptly#so i was keeping a close eye around me to anticipate anyone getting in my way. and so i avoided any collisions.#still dont wanna have to pay That close of attention tho. i long for the warmer months... so i can continue being chill inside...#it's not even that cold either lol like once u start moving? i wore a thin long sleeve shirt today and that was just finr#love ice skating... love it so very much... ice skating my beloved...#roller skating would be easier to do in general bc there are many more roller skating places#and roller skating is fun but it's not the SAME. different experience in the movements and atmosphere.#theres just something about having knives on my feet.. move so fast and so smooth... love it#kinda really wish id gotten into hockey or smth when i was younger. i think id have really enjoyed it.#im too old to get into that kinda thing tho. dont have the time and dont have the durability.#but i can dream........
