I Survived !!!

Well, this is the end of my first full week back in the gym and I have come through with flying colours.

So far I have attended three Yoga classes (with another two scheduled for the weekend), done five hours on the treadmill, and had two sessions with Gary on the gym equipment. Yesterday I was in the gym for two and a half hours as I had Yoga, PT, and Cardio (plus I also walked the dog for half and hour). I woke up this morning feeling tired but okay. Of course, I am avoiding going down to the gym by typing this blog.

I have been thinking about doing Yoga on the 2 days I have off (Monday and Friday), but on Friday the class is at 5:45am and frankly, I can't see anyway that I can get myself out of bed by 5:45am, let alone be at the gym, dressed and ready to bend my toes to touch the back of my head but 5:45am.

Funny story, yesterday I was feeling very proud of myself for managing the swan pose and sitting upright whilst holding my leg until I looked up and saw the woman beside me touching her foot with the back of her head. There was a 1 meter gap between my foot and my head an I was as stretched as I could get.

Oh well, if Madonna can manage it at 50 I'm sure I can get there at age 40 ... couldn't I ?
