meh.
First game in a while last night.
I've been doing this stairmaster challenge with C at work... going up and down the stairwell stairs. We started at 4 x 4 flights. Sixteen total. As of last week we're doing 10 x 4 and let me tell you forty flights of stairs is pretty hard core. The goal is 80.
I thought somehow with all this stair work, I'd get on the ice and fly around like Superman.
Honestly? Not much changed. N did an amazing sharpening job on my skates - the first 7/16 I've had in a while that actually felt like it's supposed to, fast on the flat, and a tiny wicked little knife of a cut on the edge so I can turn on a dime. It'd be awful for defense but it's good for forward, if I could, you know. Manage any jets whatsoever.
This "slow" epithet my captain stuck on me is sticking with me and I asked last night if I was faster and he said yeah a little but not near where I should be and after years of hustle being my best asset, it pisses me off.
I have a million excuses. Old, feeling sick today or allergies but I think I'm coming down with what the kids have. But the hell, you know? I want to be faster. I want to be better.
Ugh.
