After what felt like a nonstop, action-packed day loaded
with juggling training and coaching at three locations, I then woke up today
and jumped into a similar day. I had to
open the club up downtown for 8am, had some personal training clients to coach
and then had to race it off to Oshawa for sparring at James Town Boxing. I’ve sparred out there before, once. It’s a smaller club but it’s very much a
cozy, intimate one where members are like family and they’re all supported by a
coach who really loves what he’s doing.
I headed there to train with a female amateur boxer, Killer Bee, who is
fighting in two weeks. She and I have
sparred together before, last time I was out this way, and today it was just
her and I at her club. I had told her
and her coach that I’d spar with her and then work her out with some heavy bag
work and pad work. They’re always super
grateful for my assistance but I’m just as happy to do it as they are to have
me there.
I arrived in
Oshawa with my bag full of gear, changed into training clothes, laced up my
shoes, wrapped my hands, and then started training. Killer Bee and I did some work on the heavy
bags after my skipping, then we stepped into the ring for four rounds of
sparring. I teased her about being so super
cute and sweet but gave her a bit of a hard time too about it. I think she could really use her image to her
advantage if she played it right. I told
her to come in looking super cute but ditch the cuteness as soon as that round
bell goes off. I work a lot with her
today, trying to make her to be more aggressive in the ring and working some
key combos I think she could really benefit from.
After
sparring, Killer Bee dropped me off at the Go Train station and I headed back
to Toronto.
Girls Nite
Out tonight… nice!
Introduced
one of my favourite gal pals to another favourite gal pal of mine – Polska B
and the Polish Princess. The Polish Princess just returned to the Bloor West
Village after a relationship that went sour so boo to that but yeah for us who
missed her so much, like me. It was
great to introduce the two to each other because Polska B and the Polish
Princess are both super awesome; they’re my favourite gals to spend a Saturday
evening with, for sure. I joked and
labeled us the Polska Posse. Us three
blonde Polish ladies out on the town, sounds like spells trouble and it kind of
did but it was so much fun.
It was suppose to be just us three ladies, us three Poles, but it always seems like no matter how anti-dude we try to be on our Girls Nite Outs there is always one or two guys that slips through the cracks and works his charm into our evening. Tonight it was the Nigerian Doctor. He had searched me out. We had gone from College Street to King Street and the three of us were dancing when I turned around and who should be standing there but him, the Nigerian Doctor.
