Waiting for the vegan meal to be ready... best place to eat, and Becks is great company

Superheros on skates

Yesterday I worked an event with Aarhus Derby Danes and Copenhagen Rollergirls, it was good times. We greeted guests at a party with 18,000 people in the middle of nowhere. It was quite an adventure, not to talk about the trip there... All I will say about the trip there is that we were in a rental van that would not do more than 108km/h... I named the van "Big Blue" it was orange on the inside and blue on the outside... there was water dripping from the internal lamp and the glove compartment was filled with a blackish oily liquid... but in the end it did the job and we got our job down.

The actual work was just to skate around and greet the guests, smile and greet, the floor was polished concrete, so it was very pleasant to skate on...

Today me, Loony and Kris are going to the Sauna and then hitting up a all-you-can-eat sushi. I figured if the food that you can eat is mainly healthy, you can't really feel bad about eating all-you-can of it...

Day Nine

(Me and Crazy Criz at Copenhagen Pride a couple of weeks ago... she also writes a fitness blogg, but she does it on facebook, or I'd link you in. She is also one of my best friends derby wife)

I spent the majority of the day hanging out with Unshine from Jet City Rollergirls, she is my old teammate, we even tried out for Jet City together. I'm really proud over Jet City that has qualified for Western Regionals this year. Me and Unshine just spent time walking down Broadway and browsing the cheap stores... helping the American economy out a little... what else is there??
We went for lunch and then shopped, but I really didn't shop... I found a little trinket for my Danish lady and some earrings for myself to bout in on Saturday... and then I had to head home to get ready for practice.

Workout: My usual upper-body routine with some core 30 min
Derby: Manhattan Mayhem practice - 2 hours

Breakfast: Coffee with milk and A really amazing sandwich at Snack, tuna and roasted vegebles... YUMMY!
Lunch: A dragon sushi roll with some lime lemonade
Snack: An iced coffee with whole milk an a shortbread cookie
Dinner: Amys Vegetarian Chilli with some pasta
Snack: Coconut water

Day Eight

(it's for her and myself I will get more fit, i have to beat her in wrestling)

Manhattan Mayhem scrimmage against Queens went very well, I jammed some and blocked some, in the end I was in four jams in a row and ended up putting myself in the box. Not cool, I am working hard to get my penalties under control. It is so imortant to play clean, you are not helping your team at all if you are sitting in the box, or if you are at three minors, when your team really needs you to jam. So I really have to get out of the habit of being OK with cutting hte track minors, because they DO acumilate, and all of a sudden I'm that DAMNED jammer who cannot jam or has to poodle, not good!
Considering I spent nine hours on a flight I thought I did a really good job, I for sure have my feet under me, and so does my team seem to have. There are only five days to our bout against Brooklyn, and I feel really confident. I love Manhattan Mayhem, there is so much spirit and laughing... and of course the orange...

But... OHHH... what undies to wear... what undies to wear.... (boutfit anxiety)

Workout: Off-skates work-out for 30 min
Derby: 30 min scrimmage with Manhattan Mayhem and then 45 min practice with the Allstars

Breakfast: Coffee with milk, Greek yohurt with muesli and berries

Day Seven

(Hm, when I said we cooked, I meant Malou cooked and I looked adoringly at her)

Sometimes just spending time with the person you love is awesome, and today was one of those days, we just layed around, went for a walk, made food together and then went for another walk. A bunch of guys felt it was really important to them to call out ''Lesbians, Lesbians'' after us... very mature...

Workout: I went for a walk with my hot girl for about and hour... the rest of the day I spent in bed...
