Today was by far the WORST day yet. I was about a half a mile into my workout - when my back went out on me (not surprising...poor thing - look what I've done to it over the past few years). You know you are hurting when you contemplate lying down on the sidewalk to get some relief. Now - if you are a Mother (especially my mother) I would suggest skipping the rest of this blog. If you don't - well then please don't gripe at me at the end. I, being the competitive one by nature, decided to push through the pain and finish my THREE MILE workout. I was walking through the pain - my vision blurred by tears. I said a tiny prayer - and lets be completely honest - it WORKED. I asked for some relief from the pain - and enough was taken away from me so that I could finish my workout. Yes Ladies and Gentleman - with a thrown back I FINISHED my three mile workout. It was the prayer along with my will power (which was surprisingly strong today) that got me through my workout. I told my body that this whole workout thing was going to be my new life now - and that it (being my body) should just stop fighting the process and let it happen. We'll see how tomorrow goes. I hope it listens better than it did today.
Wish me luck!
