Fit4Change blog: Day 13 of 48
I didn’t write about Friday, but it was a leg workout and my legs are still sore from it, so in a way, any discomfort I had today was a leftover from Friday. So there you go. I also ran 11.5 miles on Saturday and 3 yesterday. Coming into today’s workout, my legs were spent.
So guess what we did a lot of today?
If you guessed “run,” you are a genius.
Honestly, I like running and it burns fat well for me. We did the Indian Run (which is an Indian Sprint with Line One), did bags and ladders (quick feet!) and ran four 100-yard sprints. (We also worked in the weight room on chest and arms and did stations with Coach NASCAR). My heart rate stayed way up today. I think it might have been because of the warmth (it felt like summer).
I was sweaty mess.
On the last sprint, I poured everything I had in me onto the fire. Sure, I was tired. But I wanted to prove something to myself. I could push through pain.
Pushing through pain. How many of us pull up when we’re tired? I do.
I’m at a point in my life when I can’t afford to anymore.
Today at 5:55 a.m., I hit a wall and pushed through it. I ran off the field a different man.
