Boxing at the YMCA

It's Wednesday evening and we just came back from training. I've been doing boxing for a few weeks now and I am having a good time. It's a fun group to train with. The age span in the class is pretty big. Two of the instructors are 63 years young and then there is one guy training who is 66, when he's not boxing he runs marathons and wrestles with bears in Alaska (only the wrestling part is a lie, as far as I know at least. You never know with this guy). There is also a girl who wants to box in the amateur league, she is 14 and has just taken up boxing. So needless to say it is a rather eclectic group of people that gets together for some recreational punching at the YMCA. But I guess that stands to reason since everyone probably has a need to hit something at least once in a while.

The picture is taken on our street.

So are you saying that old men and teenage girls can't defend themselves? ;-)
