and you thought Handstands were tough?

Rodney sent me the link for this video yesterday, and I just had to put it up. Being that I'm from Washington, DC, I can fully see me attempting this sometime in the future - might take a few years of practice... maybe on the Santa Monica steps too? Sometimes it's great to see other people do things that inspire you to give you ideas for goals to set your sights on. What are your "way out there" goals??

Yeah, I thought the same thing about the arms...you GO Shelley! It looks like you are about to smash a scary bug, haha!

Agreed! We're all fortunate that 1) we're not scary bugs and 2) Shelley is a very NICE badass!

Shelley - YOU ROCK! I'm so glad you are my friend and I know you - otherwise you'd scare the crap out of me.

In a good way.
