Yesterday my squad departed for the beginning of the World Cup tour in Ruka, Finland. Today I am going to a walking class at the center of excellence.
I really can’t complain about my progress and walking, that is all going extremely well. I just miss doing what I love most.
With an injury you are fighting a lot of battles. Mostly mentally. Everything is so much harder than it used to be and sometimes it makes you feel demoralized. Yesterday I did an exercise in PT that made me want to have a mental breakdown. I was on the verge of tears, but somehow held it in. I have to remind myself that this is when you do the hard work. The fun work comes later. Work hard. Play hard.
I miss my crew a lot, I just joined them in April but they made me feel so welcome, like I belonged. It’s tough not being on the road with them, but hopefully I make it to a few competitions this year to spectate & hang out with my team. I’m excited for a new perspective; I believe there is always a lot to learn.
For now I will be cheering them on! If I can’t compete, I only wish for my favorite people to slay!! Let’s go team!
I am working hard and finding good distractions to keep me occupied!
I bought a camera so hopefully my photos get cooler!
Eat some yummy turkey peeps. 🦃
