Return of the burn.

I realize it's been a couple days since my last post and I know I said I was going to post every day. I apologize.

I'm going to keep this short, as it is almost 10pm Sunday night and it's my own dumb fault for not posting sooner.

Friday was another round of Yoga. This time, I was expecting the intensity of the first half. That didn't make it any less rough, however... Overall, I still relished the feeling of completion at the end.

Saturday, I rocked the legs and back. Bitches don't know about my quads! (By 'bitches' I mean 'I'.) I totally rocked the wall-squat segments! Legs were on fire, but for only my second time through, my being able to power through a tough exercise like that was a triumph in and of itself. (Still having trouble with ab ripper, though.)

Finally, today was Kenpo. I had a moment of clarity when I realized I'm not doing this to learn martial arts. I'm doing it as an aerobic workout. After that, I was kinda lax on my form (still trying to make it look good, just not in a practical 'self-defense' kinda way) and concentrated on keeping the heart rate up.

As an added bonus, I went running with Ashleigh this evening. Almost made it the whole two miles before I had to break to walk. (Congratulations to Ashleigh for completing the whole circuit! Amazing job for being her first real run in a couple months!)

Tomorrow, Ashleigh starts her new job. Waking up earlier than I normally do (6:30 rather than 8), so I should have plenty of time to post immediately following my workout.

Until next time.
