Team update

The team is starting to come together here little by little. We have been working hard on the track for conditioning and on the court for basketball. I’m getting in the best shape of my life, but my legs have been feeling it! Jelly told me there is a difference between being in great shape [...]

ともだちがキックバクシングのきっぷを出してもらいましたから今日見に行きました。はじめて見た時は凄い楽しかったです。fightを見るが大すきよ!
