Our friends Brandon and Natalia are awesome surfers, so one day they took me out and tried to teach me how to surf. I've only done it the cheating way in Hawaii where someone pushes you into the wave, you don't have to catch it yourself, so I didn't realize how hard that part is.
My arms were ready to fall off by the time I would get out to the spot to catch the wave, then I couldn't paddle fast enough to stay in front of the wave to catch it all the way. I kept getting pushed back and have to paddle back to the right spot over and over again, so I was quite tired by the end. So I wasn't good at surfing, but it was still a lot of fun.

I also got some huge battle wound bruises to show for all my efforts. They were already showing later that day and were huge and turned all sorts of colors.
