I decided to skate today and just give it a shot! As I mentioned in my past posts when I skate - I go with the mind-set of the "no expectations" this way I do not set myself for failure.
Today's Skate:
So, I decided to skate my silver moves first to get the feel and get warmed up. Felt a little timid at first but then managed to skate with more confidence. Built up the courage to skate a run through of my free skate in 3 parts without music and no jumps (trying to play it safe). I then, however, took the chance to skate my program with jumps. Have to say that my second run through was way better and my jumps were clean as well my back spin - it felt great (5 revs) I did not skate my sitspin since I just got back from a long break.
Its time to get back on track!!!
What I take from this?
Its been a tough journey and I am learning to live my life with its imperfections. Its a joy to just skate and feel the ice again. I have a new journey and skating will lessen my pain.
Happy Skating!!
