Not every day is a good day...

I had a great time at the Summer Mixed Scrim on Friday, here we all are afterwards...





I saw some friends who left CRG a while ago to join Bridgend Roller Derby, so it was great to play with them and catch up. I also got lots of amazing comments about how slim and different I looked, which is always motivational!

The Scrim was made up of a mix of players from all our local teams, Brawlers, Ravens, DVV, NPT, Swansea...the lot. A mix of abilities and so a great challenge. It was so satisfying playing against and along side some of the girls you watch at bouts and think are awesome. It was especially satisfying blocking those players and realising you can stand up to them! Yay!

Saturday I turned up late for my gym HIIT session, so made up the lost time by doing some weighted squats and deadlifts, I hadn't done them for ages and it was hard work! (I am still sore today, Monday).

Then, Saturday and Sunday were family days. Lots of eating out, treats and even a McDonald's!!! I know! I haven't eaten like that since before April, so it was kind of nice and also kind of scary. Thinking you'll wake up the next morning and be the old you! But, no. It's OK. I'm back on it today!
