2/9/9
I am taking a rest today. I went to the gym Saturday and Sunday. I got a call to come to the rink and away I went. I skated again for about 2 - 2 1/2 hours. I was so tired when I got home I couldn’t sleep. I’ve never been that tired. I think I will lay off the treadmill a day or two. I stopped my twice weekly skates because the price goes up each time I go. It’s just cheaper to go to the gym. I see a lot more results going to the gym. I have actually watched people go skating twice a week and gain weight all the same. I guess stopping by Burger King for a big juicy double Whopper with cheese and onion rings after that nice workout really does make it all for nothing.

Besides the price difference of skating and going to the gym, people don’t think twice if you are drenched in sweat at the gym but might look at you like you are crazy if you roll til you’re drenched at the rink!

Oh no. . . people at the rink are equally sweaty. They even bring and carry towels to combat that. I usually wear two shirts every time. This way, I don’t appear sweaty nor do I have to carry a towel in my hand and my shirt doesn’t look like I’ve entered a wet t-shirt contest!
