Today was a good day! My biggest concern is the friend I blogged about yesterday. I spoke to her today. She is still faced with many challenges but she sounded a little more collected today. We worked on getting some legal assistance for her so we can start pushing things along Please keep praying for her.
My eating was great today, I was focused and less stressed than yesterday. Todays workout was tough. We did a good amount of running (I love running!)which I think I did pretty well with. I pushed myself to run the entire way. I paid attention to my breathing and ignored the soreness in my legs. I stayed aware and made sure I was leaning forward at the hips and not the waist. The last part of my run wasn't great, I had to walk just a few steps about 3 times to catch my breath.
But when I was coming in from that final run Brent gave me some feedback. My technique has improved already! I was so excited to hear this! He made my day :-). I am really going to do this. It seems so surreal. When he was talking to me I was jumping up and down and clapping in my mind...mostly because I was exhausted from the run and only my mind had the energy to do it. The other parts of the workout were challenging. But there was one exercise that just about sent me over the edge. We had to do a ball toss over a bar, catch it than throw it back over 30 times. Seems simple enough but it was real awkward for me. I thought for sure a ball would be planted on my face before I finished.
So, all in all it was great. I'm happy with my progress. If there has been improvement just after 6 days I can only imagine how much improvement there will be after a month or two! This is all so exciting for me. I am already looking forward to seeing what's in store for my one on one tomorrow...I do know I have to bring my weight vest
