We did it!
Oct. 10th, 2009 08:31 pmOctober Challenge was today. We did our first ice dance competition!
It's sort of odd; if you're skating against an actual competitor, the worst you can do is come in second place. It is technically possible to come in as low as third if you're skating "against the book", if you do really atrociously and score low on the point scale.
No worries here, though. We came in first. :) We'll get a DVD of our performance Thursday, which I'll attempt to rip video from and post to YouTube or something, and point folks to any pictures that come out well.
(I didn't even freeze! Rinks turn warmer in the afternoon when the sun's been out all day.)
