I was so not in the mood to workout today.

I got dressed in my gear, and then just didn't want to do it! I went to the beachbody message boards for inspiration, and got inspired to go rollerblading, instead of running!

I brought it, with Plyometrics ... the sweat was dripping off my hair! With every jump, my hair hit my face, and the sweat splattered on my cheek!!

I had to go to Santa Cruz today for my haircut today. So, I decided to blow-off my housework, and go early so I could rollerblade along West Cliff Drive! Haven't done it in a while. Haven't been on my 'blades in a really long time ... they were at the bottom of my closet, underneath a football, snorkeling gear, backpacks & my tent!

I felt a little rusty on them, when I got on! But, it ended up being ok ... I didn't fall on my face, or anything!! ;) My knee pads smelled, so, I didn't want to wear them. I know ... stupid. I'm a nurse, I know what can happen to a person who is speeding along on rollerblades without any protection!! I rode out a mile and a half, stopping occasionally to take pictures. Then, headed back.

Here are a few pictures from my day ...

Looking toward the Boardwalk & Wharf.

Surfers at Steamer Lane.

Looking back toward Lighthouse Point. This was taken from my turn-around point.
