Two days of full workouts left and then a fun day. Hard to believe how fast the time is going now.
This morning I woke up stiff and sore all over -- back and knees especially -- and wondered how I would press on. Then after our morning cardio circuit and a pool circuit I felt totally better. As Shari said, "you almost feel better working out than you do after when things stiffen up and the soreness sets in."
We're now headed in the snowstorm to the Grand Marais Pumphouse for a killer 2+ hour workout. Missing the hike today because of the blowing snow. But awesome waves.
It is amazing to see our personal transformations happening. I can see the weight loss and shape of my teammates and it is so cool. Yesterday Phillip told me I had a nice shape from the back coming into place. Pretty cool!
Cardio here we come. Hours 4-5 before lunch.
Wow, Lori, seeing results already! That is fantastic. I got my hair cut next to the pump house. I am sorry I missed you. But you will be happy to hear, the local woman who went for one week was coming out of the gym and my hair dresser said she comes every day. It WORKS!
