Celebrating with a Fist Pump :)

I was always envious of those who could kick over the heavy bag at kick boxing. I decided the best way to deal with this was to work up to being able to do so myself!
This was particularly daunting at the moment I decided to push towards that goal because I had recently injured my knee and been out for a number of weeks. Sigh. But, after dedicated focus on that goal - one day I did it!! I kicked over the heavy bag with my left leg - the one that had been hurt.
That hurdle cleared, and being the crazy person I am (or maybe ambitious is a kinder term? I'm not sure...) I decided maybe I should kick over the bag with both legs in the same class. Daunting? Yes! Doable? Maybe...
