Jess and Craig were going to the Ice Arena on Wednesday night and asked me along. Or, rather, they assumed I'd be going and invited themselves. Whatever, I ended up going with them. I probably wouldn't have gone if they hadn't as I felt rather tired in the legs. Presumably skating nine of the previous eleven days, after several weeks of once or twice a week, had worn them out.
We were there a bit over an hour. I didn't put myself into any form of overdrive, instead spending a fair amount of time just doing laps and chatting to a couple other hockey players about the season so far. I probably spent more time skating backwards than forwards, and putting into play several of the navigational aids I'd learned from a video posted by Christian, but beyond that I wasn't at all driving myself hard.
Craig, on the other hand, was working on his hockey stops. And Jess, skating backwards. Those two will get there.
When I got home I was a bit buggered. Nothing however compared to yesterday and today with almost no energy in my legs. Hopefully it will come back by Saturday night's game at Gawler.
