Roller Derby 101....

So my pal Jessi convinced my to bring my old skates from the 1980's

down to the fairgrounds, and skate with the roller derby girls. We learned

falling techniques, did cone exercises, skated in packs. It was the first

real exercise, and I've had since having Aiden! Boy what a workout,

and so much fun. All of the Nashville Roller Girls are super sweet, and

patient with the Fresh Meat, as they call us. There are about 17 girls

competing for a few slots on the Derby. But, even if we don't decide

to go for the Derby gold, we are welcome to skate, workout, and have

fun twice a week. Sounds good to me right now!
