Incompatible? or What I've Learned Yesterday

[elfichka]

After a very embarrassing incident, which involved me tripping and falling while out on my run (thankfully, it was in a very dark alley and noone actually saw me taking a tumble, although someone had to hear me swearing creatively in 3 different languages as I did it), I have finally concluded that my body was never made for the very active kind of life that I want to lead. The funny thing is that my first reaction was, "So, what? Better have some good stories to tell when I'm old and broken then!" I guess I'll never learn. :)

The second conclusion was that after 4 years of aikido I learned absolutely nothing about how to take a proper fall/roll. Darn, I'm slow!
