Lynn Bourton 5/18/2019 8:51 AMSo yesterday my exercise was skating with Shawn and Nick! Looked pretty great with elbow pads, my bike helmet and a loaner pair of hockey gloves. Ice skating is hard! Trying to hit a puck with a stick even harder!! I couldn’t do both at the same time- it was either hit the puck or skate😉. BUT I didn’t fall- do no injuries! Can’t wait to try it again. Going to be 60 tomorrow but I vow to keep trying new things. Great day everyone!! -
