Aviator Sports - Brooklyn, NY

Due to mild rain, there was overwhelming traffic on the westside highway and the belt parkway.  It didn't help also when there were two cars stuck in the middle of the road.    So with all that mess it caused us to be 15 minutes late.  I ended up not stepping on the ice until 7:23.  I had to wrap duct tape on my skates, so that took extra time.  The ice of course was hard as usual.  My left ankle started pulsating.  I ignored it as much as I can.  At 7:55 it still didn't go away, so I took exedrin.  It helped a little.  Got through the lutz thankfully.  No spins though   Tried some program run throughs, and it went so-so.  Damn it, I would like to have a session where nothing hurts, no equipment complications, good ice, and Im well rested.
