Kick Fest

At color belt class, I gained leadership credit, I helped someone with their red belt and high blue self-defense then taught them their belt study guide. When sparring class came we kicked the big black water paddles 10 times each leg then went backwards starting with the highest belt to lowest. That was enough to make me huff and puff, then I went 4 rounds of sparring and felt out of it. One of the people I was sparring kicked me 4 times a second. Resting for tomorrow at this moment.
