I woke up early today and went for a walk/jog. I like to go early before my husband has to leave for work, but I am a bit on a time schedule. I wasn't feeling the muggy weather, so I went with what I like to call a verse/chorus course through my tiny neighborhood. So, for every song I listened to, I walked during the verses and jogged for the choruses. Some songs had long choruses, and some were quick. Some songs doubled up or even tripled their chorus (thanks Katy Perry), which was a nice push. After an hour, I went about 4.17 miles. Not too bad, but I could do better if the air wasn't so thick.
Later I remembered I planned to meet Silvia for Jazzercise at 9:30am. It was rough getting there, but I made it (so the kids' hair wasn't brushed - big deal). It's never good when the perky little instructor announces at the beginning, "I feel like I have to warn you all that this is going to be a tough workout today." Thank you, Barbie. And rough, it was! We did more squats and lunges than I care to do in one hour.
Needless to say, I was EXHAUSTED after a major quad workout. Still feeling the pain. Tomorrow will be better....right?
"Don't stop when it hurts, stop when your done" The moment of hearing that the workout is going to be tough from an instructor, I know your pain but the push from someone else is sometimes what's needed. What an awesome day you had, well done super proud of your workouts and you! Soon your hair won't be brushed but pulled back to exercise that little longer, so the girls are only getting a head start and tomorrow is always better ;) AHB xo
