So on Monday I had a terrible session. Like some kind of bad joke, my stellar session on Friday was followed up by a stinker. I was annoyed, but I tried to take Gary Beacom's advice to focus on what was positive about the session and put it behind me. I thought hard and came up with one positive: that I went.
After a day off, I went back today with a good attitude, and managed to do a quick off-ice warmup this time (I like to do 20 minutes, but on Monday I didn't have time for any). I didn't land my Axel out of the gate, but I was feeling good and eventually worked up the courage to just go for it, in spite of how strange it feels. I even managed to do an OK Axel for the camera, so now you know it's not a Unicorn or a Dragon or Snuffalupagus!
Nicely done!
