I have found a great skating route in Draper where I work. I can skate through the neighborhood and hook up with a couple of paved bike paths with relatively little traffic during my lunch hour. The fall weather has made this a perfect time to skate. I have had some interesting experiences in the last two weeks. A few days ago a great big yellow dog came after me...I thought for sure he was going to run me down and eat me! Fortunately, he turned back and left me alone. Got my heart racing though! And three days ago I was just skating along, enjoying my own thoughts, when a rock jumped out in front of me and tried to kill me. Unfortunately, in preventing my fall, I pulled every muscle in my right buttocks and hamstring. Skinned knees would have probably been less painful and healed much faster. I hurt. But...will it keep me from getting back out there? No way.
