One of the things I keep remembering about San Juan del Sur is that it doesn’t have a hospital. It’s something I definitely haven’t had to think about though. Our Chica Brava surf guides always watch after us, cheer us on, warn us about possible hazards and help us learn about the waves. I’m staying positive. Thursday was another great day on the waves as was today. However, today was the first day I was so worn out that I had to go stand on shore for a break. Although I’m very fit and have been preparing for this surf trip for months, I obviously have some more work to do. My cardiovascular system is great; it’s my muscles under my arms and at my hips that are screaming. These muscles are part of the pop up. Some of the others in the group and I are promising to keep practicing our surfing when we get home. We’ll have to use the small waves in Galveston, but that should be perfect for us. This will require work, but all good/fun things require work. I also need to retrain my muscles, which have strengthened in a particular fashion to support my cycling habit. For surfing, my muscles have to be retrained. Yoga will definitely help. I’m a certifiable surfer girl!
