I blush to admit that this is somewhat autobiographical:
Suzanne hated the cold. Ice was beautiful, she admitted, when it glazed branches and the sun shone through. But she hated being bundled up in heavy clothes. She hated shivering. She hated being confined indoors, unable to get out and walk or work in the garden.
That’s why she was so glad she had discovered her new sport. Suzanne had never really enjoyed any sport. But this – this was fun and it kept her fit. It challenged both her body and her mind.
Oops! She was almost late for her lesson.
She grabbed her ice skates and ran.
