One of my reasons for having surgery is to be more active with my kids, namely cycling and skating.  Last night my husband and I went down to the Harborfront Skating Rink.... And skated for over an hour without a break. Woot woot! May not sound like much, but normally after being on skates for about 10 minutes my feet felt like they were breaking.It was darned cold though so I had to call it quits.  Can't wait to go back next weekend with my whole family!

That's amazing!  Skating is so fun... It's certainly on my hoped for NSV list!

Excellent! Congratulations! That is a huge NSV!

I'm looking forward to trying to skate this year for the first time in YEARS! Should be fun!

I think an hour sounds like a lot. What a great goal to have met. Something that impacts your whole family.
