Today's workout - Friday the 4th - Day 42

I thought I'd never get caught up to current day WOD information!

My back was still sore from the previous two days workouts and I was just not looking forward to the damn thing anyway.  It's Friday, I'm tired, I just want to go home and relax before doing my homework (mid term in one class and another paper in the other).  I need concentration and worrying about how my body was going to be feeling was not what I wanted to think about!

20 Russian twists
20 knee ups (hanging from the pull up bar)
20 sit ups
20 alt v ups
2 stair runs
5 rounds

I knew it would hurt.  I knew I would be near tears by the end of it.  What I did not know is how I'd do it.  I have not been able to breathe through my nose for days.  Days.  It's driving me insane!  I dislike breathing through my mouth cause it makes me thirsty and makes my throat freaking hurt!

When he texted this to me, I almost burst into tears.  You know it's bad when that happens.  I sat there and stared at it for a good 45 minutes before texting him a thank you.  I may or may not have told him that it just made me want to cry.

I am fairly certain he thinks I'm crazier than shit and I'm okay with that.  I will text him outta the blue after a workout and tell him exactly what I'm thinking at that moment.  And sometimes, it is NOT pleasant towards him lol  He takes it and he laughs at me.  He grins and says "I know, Kathy, it's okay, I do not mind."

Although, after today's workout?  I told my partner I was not speaking to the trainer until at least Tuesday (when we would see him at work again) and she would have to get our workout for Monday.

I used to make fun of people like me.  Always working out, even when you're super sore from the previous workout.  Now I'm one of those people I used to hassle.  Why?  Why do we do this to ourselves?  It makes no bloody sense to me.  But I do like the results.  I like what I'm seeing and feeling.  I like that my clothes are getting loose around the waist.  I like that my legs are feeling and looking pretty muscular.  I like that my neck and face have more definition to my facial features than before.  I like that my chest has not really gotten smaller, even though I've lost weight with these workouts and walking we did before the workouts.  I've gotten really used to being able to run up and down the stairs at work without getting winded (when I'm not going from basement to 2nd floor like in the workouts).

Until next week, when we start week 10.
