Day One at D-1

“Just hold back the tears!” – day 1 & day 3 reaction upon finishing the workout. (For some reason, I felt energized when leaving on day 2). I sure hope to have more of those feelings. Right now I’m feeling the pains of thrusting an intense boot camp on my body which has not participated in any consistent aerobics exercise in twenty years. As one of the slowest in my class, I’m wondering what I’m doing here as I try to catch my breath, and hope the next routine will be manageable. I keep expecting Carter to pull me aside and tell me to lose 100 lbs, and then come back. That’s surely what I’ve been thinking. To say that every single muscle in my body is aching, is a huge understatement. Even my wrists and fingers are sore most likely from pushing those huge tires. But…. even with the soreness, I’m feeling tightness in my entire body. I am looking forward to the day I can finish my jogging laps around the turf without stopping. Now I must go to bed and get much needed REST!
