Who am I?

Hello and welcome to my blog on a fresh meat lifestyle for a fun competitive sport called roller derby.

Roller Derby is all kinds of awesome; its fun, its amazing exercise, its a crazy sport, you get to make loads of cool friends (bonds of sisterhood!) & you can actually call yourself an athlete.

First, an introduction…
Who am I?

Well... I'm Invader Zoom & I skate for Dirt City Roller Rats in a small town of Victorville, CA.

I'm only fresh meat, but ever since I joined my life has been a roller coaster & even though it can be stressful from time to time I know it is worth it. I was little when I was last on my quads skates I skated mostly inline until I around 16 (when they magically disappeared from my house). So it has been a while since I was last on anything with wheels. Even though I've only skated for a few months this year with the team it wasn't terrifying at all to be back on them & since I'm prone to falling since I'm clumsy anyways; it was actually the time management that scared me. I'm a mother & a full time worker I wasn't really sure how to deal with it, but over the months I've managed to get everything together & I'm glad I did.

I'm personally not a real fan of hanging around a bunch of girls all day, but I enjoy being around my teammates they're great women with different personality that I get along with & there isn't much drama.

I decided to write this blog with some from my teammates on the training, ways to take of yourself and etc... on this fresh meat lifestyle journey.
