Clicking, not clicking?

We had a combination of off skates and on skates practice yesterday. On both we trained our agility skills. It was such a great practice, I felt exhausted and my soles really hurt, but there was a moment of clicking that made me smile wide - and still does.

I learned to work with my hands while skating.

Yes, just a simple thing like that! Skating has never been easy for me. I have no earlier experience of skating in any form. Before the holidays I finally understood I need to turn my upper body towards the center of the track, especially when going trough the curves. Slowly I somehow naturally took my hands with me doing that. Yesterday when we were doing a drill of sprinting and doing other drills in between it just hit me. One moment I realized my hands were moving strongly and I was kind of a pushing more speed with them. When I realized that I made the move more controlled and powerful. I felt like flying. Skating did not feel uncomfortable anymore. It felt like magic and I love it. Can't wait to get back on the track today!

That's the lightning in my head. I'm too happy to write anymore and it's practice time in an hour. So we'll see you guys tomorrow - unless I brainstorm today as well and am too happy to write again! Like that's gonna happen, krää!
