Out of Breath... But Feels Good!

February 20, 2013

I woke up this morning and I was sore! It felt good to be sore again though. Made me feel like I made a difference yesterday. So today I went in and did a pretty good workout. Took about 50 minutes to complete it, and I was very out of breath for most of it! But I think it went pretty well!

Also, once I got home I unpacked my two gigantic suitcases from my time on the road... I consider that a mini workout too! ;) Lots of bending down to the ground and picking things up and then hanging them up- and repeating a million times... Not a "real" workout, but how I see it - any movement is good movement!

News reports are saying that there is going to be a big winter storm starting this afternoon. So I doubt I'll get any more exercise in today. Probably gonna stay by the fire for the night, and maybe get to watch some snow fall!
