Tues. Track Training 6/23/09 Back from Camping.

I know I haven't made a entry in a while but we had a family camping trip planned. So we packed up and headed out to Kern River for some much needed rest and relaxation and some river rafting, let me clarify that for you I didnt do any rafting just relaxing ;-) relax ;-)
Came Back on Monday evening and back right back to training at the track Tues. Right off the bat coach Terry has us start doing laps. So she has us doing the straight part of the track sprinting and the round parts just Race walking, oh she had us do about a dozen of those or so, seemed like but honestly we did maybe 2 miles. She than had us doing lunge exercises and a variety of others, than we finished off with some more racewalking laps. I felt pretty good after we were done and I have to tell u it was a great workout!!
So a couple days have passed before I made this entry and you know I was not sure if I would be able to get the energy up to make this entry or ever walk again!! Those lunges killed me and I think the other exercises may have caused some of the pain I am experiencing. Getting up and down from any kind of sitting position is very difficult and causes some pain and the toilet at this point is my enemy to try to get up and down from. I am feeling every muscle these days and walking pretty funny looking so much so that, when I was leaving the grocery store a bagger came running up to me asked me if I was ok and just started pushing my grocery cart for me ;-O
It turned out to be the start of a great conversation and maybe a great lead to a donation woo hoo.
Can't wait till Sat Training...Bring it on
