Sunday was a great day! Loved it...every minute of it. Didn't care about the weather. There is no such thing as bad weather. Weather is weather. I embrace it. My favorite time to run is when it rains.....so why not get my butt whipped in it! It makes it more intense for me. Hard to describe. I am sure all you reading this think I am crazy!!!!!
It was so hard. It was harder than last week.....and easier at the same time. Maybe any day is easier when Burpees are not involved. I just felt stronger.
We worked our core doing reach ups and side sit ups. It hurt . Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! I couldn't believe I could keep up. I didn't let it enter my head that I couldn't do it. I think that made a difference. I had to dig deep. I told myself. I AM STRONG. The power of positive thinking. Powerful thing.
I am know known as THE MOANER! I cant seem to push myself without letting out grunts and groans. It was a little embarrassing at first. Shannon had a good point. If I ever fall behind.....I will be missed. As soon as the moaning stops .......it will be time to find the little one!!!
I was supposed to do sprinting yesterday. Never happened. I was lucky enough to walk my dog for 90 minutes. Wasn't our usual fast paced, on a mission walk. But none the less..was a walk. I honestly ached from top to bottom. I still do. My core is so sore. It feels like I am bruised. I cannot touch my rib area. I have never ever felt like this. I LOVE IT.
I did my sprinting today. It was just as hard as day one and I cursed it just as much. Took a few extra sneakers to the park , laid them out and did my best. Between sprints I did push ups and tricep dips. Push ups seem to be getting a little easier. Will have to try some man ones next time.
I wanted to do some core work but It just isn't possible. I am hoping tommorrow the pain will be gone and I can get back to the reach ups etc!!!!
So excited about Sunday and being on the bike. Just excited in general to see everyone. I starting thinking today....when this is all over .....I am really going to miss this. Falling in love with the whole situation!

Keri, I know this sounds crazy but the moaning was comforting! We were all going through the same pain.;) Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHey Keri,
ReplyDeleteOn Sunday I was going to write my blog but I started looking at your wedding pics on facebook... so beautiful looks like you guys had a memorable day.
I too will miss all of this once it is done. I do hope that we all keep in touch once we have completed our challenges.
Keep up the great work, see you on Sunday.
I like running in the rain too! So if you're crazy then so am I :)
ReplyDeleteGood job on doing more exercise even through you were sore. At first it would take me a week to get over the soreness...needless to say I didn't do any exercise until all the sore went away LOL..I thought I wouldn't be able to exercise while sore but I was WRONG. Plus sometimes it helps you feel better faster.
