DeleteIn roller derby we are taught to always look behind us. Always. It's so hard to follow when you're skating as fast as you can, surrounded by a pack of women, and looking strictly behind you. I'm so glad it's the opposite in real life. Look forward and be forward thinking!
ReplyDeleteRoller derby? You are a woman of many talents!
