Day 21 was Super Set Sunday! My husband woke me up at 7:15 because he was heading for the Eagles home opener. I almost went back to sleep but decided to get up and go. I got through the strength training well and headed right for Wegman's. One of my favorite "rewards" after a Sunday morning workout is their iced coffee, it is soo good! I love my Wegman's and Regina had told me where to find these amazing Florentine turkey burgers (by the shish-kebobs). I approached the counter just as the butcher was making a fresh batch and they looked so yummy! Unfortunately, she told me that they were soon going to stop carrying them for the season so I need to find out the ingredients to make them myself!
Day 22 was my very first spin class. There are no words! It was extraordinarily challenging. I made it through the whole class but by "making it through" I mean that I never stopped pedaling. I was not able to climb all of the hills so for much of the class I kept on riding on the flat ground. My quads were on fire and then they were dead. Unfortunately, my other problem was that the seat was excruciating to my "southern regions"! Interpretation: I could stand up on the pedals and I did not want to sit down! I hung in and by the end I looked wringing wet but felt triumphant.
A man approached Regina at the end of class and told her that because of her spin class he has lost over 80 pounds! I was beyond proud of her!
Today is day 23 and I met Regina to do more strength training. She had texted me this morning asking how I was feeling after class. I told her "sore but accomplished". she answered that this was the "weakness leaving my body". I loved the sound of that! I am really tired today and am looking forward to falling into bed!
