Hello Old Friend

Day 152

When I first laid eyes on my old friend, I was a bit nervous. What if things weren't the same as before? Will we still be compatible? I hope I don't get hurt.

Cautiously, I made my way over. I ran my hands over the smooth arms and said "Hello Elliptical Machine... Oh how I've missed you. Please don't hurt me."I stepped on and set the incline and resistance to 3. After about a minute, I said to myself "mmmm... this is just too easy," so, I kicked it up a notch.

Eventually, I hit my stride with a 5 incline and 7 resistance and for 30 minutes I was in heaven. It was like we'd never been apart except for the fact that I'm in better shape now than I have been in years. (yay me!) Fueled by my endorphin high, I went on to squeeze in an upper body workout since I spent yesterday doing nothing but recouperating from the weekend festivities.

It's been a great day. I can't wait to hit it again tomorrow.

Cheers!
