Good for you! Wonderful that you even tried rollerblading! 

That is awesome! 

Impressive! 

You go girl! Our grandson got a set for his birthday last week and I gave a short thought to getting mine from upstairs..... But it didn't last long! LOL 

I'm proud of you too!! I used to LOVE LOVE LOVE rollerblading. Unfortunately I have had some injuries (non-rollerblade related) to my knees and my ortho has forbidding me from activities involving lateral movements of the knees. I was at a skating rink a few weeks ago and desperately wanted to see if I've still got it, but I aired on the side of caution and just observed. Soooo, enjoy it a little extra for me :) Your hubby is right by the way, your feel will get used to it!  

Hopefully the gift also included a helmet, wrist guards, elbow guards and knee guards. Have fun. 

Good for you! Enjoy them!! 

Thanks all! jparlett the gift did indeed include a helmet, knee pads, elbow pads and wrist guards. Hubby tells me the wrist guards and helmet are the most important! That is what I wore when I first tried it out. I wasn't moving that fast to begin with...I used to rollerskate all the time as a child. It came back pretty quickly. At 52 years old I am sure I look pretty silly out there but have to get this big butt moving somehow. Now the seasonal temps are back so won't be doing it again for a while...but when it gets nicer again I will be back at it. Yo I hope my feet get used to it quickly! That hurt! Becky you run so you don't have to do the rollerblading. LindaLee14 I agree on the foot rub...I will have to suggest that for next time. 

Wow - good for you! I am in Minnetonka - it was a nice day! 

Hi HCB..good to know another MN resident!  

How flippin' cool are you!!!!? Sounds like you had fun in-spite of those footie cramps! 

thanks herpinusa..
