Traffic going to Nyack, NY was very stressful.  Now we had no time to warm up and just had to jump on the ice.     I was last getting on as usual.      (I had to duct tape my skates)         I felt stiff for the first 30 minutes.  I took the time to do edges and still help out my friends with their jumps.      I manage to jump up to a lutz even though I still did not feel right.   I knew it wasn't the perfect technique I hoped for but I just had to get back the feeling on rotating and landing them.    Then one of our skating friends wanted me to meet her husband, I proceeded to the boards and got into a deep rut and left my blades stuck and had me fall right on my tail bone.  I have not had a fall like that in years!!!   It left me in somewhat of a pain during the session.  I tried a flying camel but the pain started pulsating and left me to fall out, tried a back spin - fell again.    Then I tried numerous axel exercises.      My body was aching the whole night, Im sure tomorrow I will feel it 3 times worse
