Happy Wednesday! For my latest adventure I took part in a jiu jitsu class, and it was an adventure I probably should have done a little more research on! At least when it comes to where I went; I picked the gym through a simple Google search, sent out some inquiries, and went with the first company to get back to me.  Maybe not the best approach! Though, while I am sure the gym I tried out is an excellent business (they were crazy busy while I was there) and the owner was extremely qualified and personable, I am not sure it was the place for me.  The gym I went to, was not simply a martial arts gym, but a full-on MMA competition training facility. The gym was located in an industrial-ish part of town.  When I walked in for my boxing class and a jiu jitsu classes, I was the only woman, the only person in business attire, and definitely in the minority with my lack of tattoos and multiple piercings.   In the room where classes were held there was a full on boxing ring (for boxing class) and a cage for the jiu jitsu class... yes, a cage.  I am not sure what I expected but it was not a fighting cage and boxing ring.  I guess I expected the fake self-defense dummies and a wide open floor mat.

Hey There! Welcome back!   This past week, I fell of the adventure band wagon.  😦  Only 6 weeks in to my 52 week challenge and I dropped the ball... However, instead of dwelling on my failure (which would be my typical MO), I got busy planning the next several weeks of adventures, including my make-up adventure!  The sad thing is, I had 2 adventures planned this week and plans simply fell through.
