foot in it

Whatever else you can say about my derby skill development, one thing for certain is that I have become much, much stronger since I started skating.  Prior to skating, my legs sort of resembled a doughy, potato type food product.  Picture perogies or gnocchi.   My legs are now full of strappy, tough bands of muscle. I even have this unlady-like thick muscle running up my shin, almost obscuring my tibia when flexed.  I never even knew of it's existence until a few months ago.

I can kick like a mule.

Which is why I now need to find another way of venting when I get frustrated.

Maybe I can go shopping for nicer shoes?
