Today I Sparred For The First Time Ever While Training For Rough N' Rowdy 18

Sparred for my first time today training for RNR 18 and let's just say I won't be registering these hands as weapons any time soon. 

Things I've learned so far:

1. Boxing isn't a beauty salon, so if I touch my hair one more time, I have to shave it. 

2. 3 minutes in boxing is 7 minutes IRL. 

3. In the wise words of Leo, my coach, the girl I'm fighting (TBD) will bleed the same as me, train the same as me, and be no different than me. My biggest competitor will be myself. 

4. If I'm afraid to get hit, I won't hit

   AKA hit or get hit. (learned this one the hard way)

Why am I fighting? To look good in a swimsuit, of course! 

Just kidding. For the money.
