Sick Week 7

Where to start? Well, this week was more challenging given that we both came down with your typical nasty winter cold. Tuesday was rough, hardest one ever given the fact it was hard to breathe and physically exercise. Let me tell you something: if you aren't sure if you're sick or not, attempting the Insanity workout is a sure fire way to find out. Miserable, just miserable. Stopped a lot, fought tears, but made it through. Wednesday I was going to do the workout in the am since I had a dinner date with a ladyfriend after work but had to make an executive decision and take the day off. When I woke up feeling worse I knew it was the right call. Hubby stuck to the routine though and did it by himself. Thursday was the Max Recovery day so I eased back into it and last night kicked our butts once again.

"Bloomin Onion!"
"Steak, ah, garlic mashed, ahhh, wine!"

That's how I got through last night's workout. Yes, I was calling out my dinner order to get me through and you know what? It helped. When we were burning and trying not to stop, husband said, "if you want wine with dinner you have to do it until they stop". Oh man, I  mean I know if I want to have wine I'll damn well have wine but it's comments like these that really do help push through and work harder when otherwise you might not think you can. You CAN, it's just hard.

Today was my turn to work out alone as I'm feeling better. Still have a cold of course but he was hurting and made his own executive decision to sit out.

Annnnd that wraps up week 7 folks. Fit test Monday followed by a workout - insane idea if you ask me. Only two more weeks to go!
