Let me just tell you how sweet my last week was in Maui!! It was beautiful weather and I got to play in the water every day, cliff jumping, SUP, and a little tow-in. Kevin took me out and I was so scared but the waves were perfect little baby waves for me to practice on. It was really the perfect week. I didn’t want it to end. But its time to get back to work. Im in Denver right now heading back home for a few minutes so I can get in my car and drive to Park City and do the spring physical tests tomorrow! Yippy, Pain. ha ha Well I am already missing Maui and will even more when I see all the snow that is still in Jackson but Im ready to get my program and start the new season strong and healthy!
Today was awesome, I finally felt like I was really getting into things. Foot felt great, went on a walk to wake up this morning. Then headed down to the beach and was lucky because the sun gradually came out so I could get my tan on. In the Evening we were just hanging out and enjoying the sun (its been raining every other day) and Kevin decided I should try windsurfing again. Since I felt so good I decided to just go for it. If anything my friends Padgett and Sam, who came to visit, would get a good laugh. It ended up going really well and I was ripping… he he well for me I was. I was lucky to have Kevin paddling around telling me what to do. It was a good feeling to be doing something, focusing and having a blast.
On the way home we stopped at a friends fresh fish boat to pick up some dinner. And man I just finished eating my pound of Ahi and oh it was so so good! Perfect day for me!
So I did the Butterfly Effect! It was so much fun! I was a bit scared at first because I wasn’t sure I could go that far on the SUP board with the boot on. But I did it. I had some good girls to stand by the whole time Katie and Sam. We had a blast there were over 100 women doing it, Suping, windsurfing and kiteboarding. It was so cool to be with such amazing athletes and women, super good energy. It was a beautiful day and the wind was rolling so it was easy and fun. I even had my own little Jackson crew of girls that tried it out and did awesome for there first SUP ever!
I have sort of become addicted to suping. I have gone everyday this week. My core is so sore I had to take a break. I am working my way out of the boot so its great for activating my ankle muscles and stabilizing my foot. Its like therapy in so many ways out there on the water, Mind, Body and Soul, just floating along with water having conversations with the waves and letting everything go to the Ocean. Beautiful!
So this looks like a lot of fun to me so I am going to give it a try. Paddle a board downwind for 12 miles with a bunch of girls having fun!! Fun in the sun. If you happen to get out to Maui and want to join me and the rest of the girls stop bye!
