So, I started with the Boulder County Bombers yesterday and I have to say... OW! My legs are so sore, it is unbelievable. Mostly, it's my hamstrings and I feel it in the inside (the adductors?) and somewhat in the back... though that could be because most of the times I fell last night, I fell backwards even though I was trying to fall forwards (reason being that all the protective gear has padding on the front, not the back). I had to take a work-at-home day at work today and I'm not going to be moving much today.

Having said that, I'm going to be going back to the next practice on Saturday.

Embrace the pain! you're a derby a badass.

Oh yeah, I'm aiming to get good enough to get on the A team.

Awesome. It's big here. My daughter did JR derby for 3 years then quit because she didn't want to do full contact.

That is awesome! Always something I wanted to do ever since I lived in CO. I used to go watch the pikes peak derby dames with my ex when she was an emt at their bouts.

Congratulations!! Keep at it.
