Trying something new in our fitness repertoire....

We decided to add a new activity to our fitness routine.  Its hard to keep yourself motivated to exercise if there is no fun in doing it.  Inline skating is our new thing.  We bought 2 pairs of beginner to intermediate skates yesterday.  One for Kaye and one for me.  We also got some protective pads just in case.

I thought that it would be easy since I used to skate before.  But that was 30 years ago.  Man, was I in for a surprise.  It wasn't that easy but at least I'm able to stand up and skate a little bit.  I have to get used to it though.  My shins started to hurt after about 20 mins.  I guess it's normal.  Just needs some stretching before  I skate which I obviously did not do.  I also need to strengthen my leg muscles and make them more flexible.  This should happen in time.

I just hope that we start getting better days so we can skate more.  It's freezing here.  I'll take pictures of our skates and post them later.
