Gym Report - cardio

[susandennis]

Wow - you take a day off and the treadmill bites your shorts!  Because of Easter and my every other day exercise/cardio schedule, until this morning, last Friday was the the last time I was on the treadmill.  That's the only reason I can think of that would have made today so difficult.  But, wow, it was.  My normal speed was really hard.  I tried going faster, and slower and all of it was so not easy.  Wow.  But, I managed my 30 minutes with the 2 going backward so all is well.  I hate gym-closed days!

Way back when, there used to be this dour looking woman about my age and size and shape who came in every morning looking like life sucked and all things considered a root canal would be better than being at the gym.  I worked on her for months every day, trying to coax a smile and finally I did and then, one day, I got a 'good morning!' out of her. It was big.

And then I didn't see her again.  I actually spied her going in at lunch now and again so I knew she was there but had changed her schedule. 

She was there today.  But now she was in regular gym clothes (before she wore just regular street clothes) and had earbuds in and gave me a huge 'good morning' smile when I walked in!  It was fun to see her again.  She looked good and happy.  And she worked hard - treadmill and exercises. 

Fun.

Shower.

Closed gym days suck big-time. Especially for people like me, who fall apart when they can't keep to their routine.
