30 Rounds For Distance:
Row 30 Seconds
Rest 30 Seconds
Casey and Jamie geared up in their new roller derby gear. Really awesome to see a couple of our members taking their newly found strength our of the gym and learning to play a new sport. I got this pic from Matt, but if anyone has info on the leauge or times, I am sure some of us would love to come out and witness this. There might even be a few brave souls who would want to participate.
Cough up some more details to comments.

Heh! We are having a blast so far!
We are participating in a women's derby recreation league, so no official bouts for us and practices are closed, but if you want to join the rec league definitely email them for more info!
recleague@saccityrollers.com
The more the merrier! Also, I think the Sac City Rollers have a bout coming up on Sept 15 if you want to see the competitive chicks in action! http://saccityrollers.com/

Are you renting your gear right now? Or did you buy some?
Posted by: Sharyn | August 29, 2012 at 10:51 AM
It's such a blast! Sharyn, we've got our own equipment, but they do have a limited supply of loaner gear, including skates. When you email, ask about that. Sports Chalet and Sports Authority have some pretty good prices on all the pads right now. I got my skates at The Rink. The next session is September 10th.
On a totally unrelated note, Brittany Miller posted this on FB and I wanted to share. You know CrossFit is totally mainstream when it's featured on TMZ....

I bought some cheap skates and a mouth guard on Amazon and my friend had pads and a helmet that she didn't need anymore, so she gave them to me. The Roller's have random pads in the practice space too! They are all super helpful and sweet if you get ahold of them through email :)

Oh! And the rec league is Monday nights from 6:30pm to 8:30. Not this coming Monday though because it's Labor Day :)
