It's been a few months since the last time that I surfed. I was telling my friend who's a pro surfer that I was scared after doing a tango with the fin the last time I was surfing. He understood my pain. He had to do a massage on the 1" diameter lump that was left after 2 weeks of a nasty bruise from the impact of the slicing safety fin on the back of my knee.
Then I remembered Roosevelt's saying, "The only thing to fear is fear itself!" So today I went to the beach and surfed. I'm a self-taught, beginning, long boarder which is why I get tossed about with my board a lot. Today the waves were soft, so I was able to get up and actually maneuver my board! I do believe that I'm going to have to add a surf day to my exercise regime. I had fun!
