A Firm Kickoff
The stiffness snapped right out of my legs! No warm-up needed—I gave a sharp flex, plant my big paper-flat feet into the soft blue surface, and lurched straight forward. Spotting that tiny white chair right in front of me, I didn't hesitate for a second. I threw an eager kick against its front leg to test my reach. The plastic slid back a couple of inches with a clean scrape. Ha! Still got all the snap in these joints. I planted myself steady, jaw wide and ready.
