Weekend full of RD

A triple header yesterday took 5 hours and these three mini bouts today took four hours. So no wonder I got a fever! Darn, really, why did I get sick in the middle of my mini vacation? This really ruins my mood! I've had such an amazing time during this weekend. There was great bouts yesterday that Kallio (B & A -teams) played against Gothenburg Roller Derby A and Crime City Rollers B. The last bout was something quite different we've seen in Finland so far: the first Nordic men's roller derby bout! The Sons Of Peaches (FIN) vs The Peaches (SWE/DEN) was a bout played by our referees and you could really see it too. Quite different when they show their own penalties, jump over each other, don't actually "fall small" and hit like hell. It was also the final of the three so the audience was a bit drunk already and cheering mixed with laughter. It was entertaining and they had some cool tricks and sets too.

I would have had time to go to the gym since we got to Porvoo earlier but now I have to lie my fever away.

Shorty H #42

I'm turning a new leaf with my workouts considering roller derby! I've been quite sporty from 2010 when I really got into running and spinning. It was a long and a hard path to gain stamina since I had never moved before. In 2009 I had to literally start by walking for hours because I wasn't up for running yet. After building up a good basic condition I finally got to taste running and it was a great victory for me.

I love running and the feel of freedom it gives me. I started longing for something more so in 2011 I started toning my muscles too at the gym. Bodypump, group training, yoga and dancing became my weekly routine. In spring 2012 I fell in love with pole dancing and after seeing roller derby grow in Porvoo for one month I finally had the courage to go and try it out. So this is where my story begins!
