I told you I was hungry today! These multi workouts are saying, EAT! Also had two pieces of dreid seaweed

Last night before I went to bed, I decided I probably wasn't going to workout and let my body rest.

This morning, I found that I was awake at 530am... I had a decision to make.

Rudy's words rang through my head, "How can you be what you've never been before if you don't do what you haven't done before?" Ok, that was enough for me. I certainly haven't worked out as hard as I have four days in a row before, so I might as well, just do it!

When I arrived, the first thing that Nicole Locke said to me was, "You're on time!" Funny, because that was her comment to me on my blog from a couple of days ago; I had been feelin sad and blue that I wasn't seeing anymore comments from her. See how great her comments are and the effect they have on me? :) Gotta love the comaraderie!

So we started with running. I actually decided to walk and talk with Carmela because my body was unsure from yesterday. You know, I don't think I have ever chatted with Carmela. She is very lively and has a great spirit! It was very easy to carry a conversation with her. :) Natalie joined us in our gab and then Rudy told us to get moving. When I started to run, I felt it in my feet going up to my legs. I was sore... so when I saw the tires being rolled out, I was a little bummed. After the run, I guess Rudy decided it was time for more indoor shadowing boxing... HOORAY!

This time we did the level two tape. I think that is what it was. Everyone was sooo worked! It was great! Dripping, literally dripping sweat! I still got to find out what a liver shot is... I am sure I am not doing it right. I don't know the mechanics and how the power comes from my feet yet. I had the wrong hair thing in cause at the end of every round, I had to mess with my hair to get it back up. Sal had the camera today. I am sure he got all of us looking all crazy. I hope we get to see some of his pictures that he took.

We were supposed to go 100%, so I was calling on my strikes. I think I have the problem I always had. i call too much for power and get more tired. I should just breath and call on the last or powerful strikes. I will try to be mindful of this next time.

I was also surprised at how big my arms looked in the mirror sometimes! Hope I can get all the rolls out of my belly before pictures! I still haven't heard from Karen how we will proceed with the shoot since I take vacation Dec1 to Dec9. I hope it all works out well!
