Determination

 

crzs0021764

Words like push, saddle, sprint, hover, climb have not been words that have brought me great joy this week.  With a soar behind, I had to mentally prepare myself to push forward. 

Today I hit the top of that mountain I had been struggling with each day.  My body kept screaming at me to stop and I just kept on going. It is amazing what we are capable of.  It is still hard and I am expecting more hard work. But I think I can do it.  Its even a little fun. 



(sorry... yes, I have been doing some spinning classes this week with my FREE pass)

Are you talking about a spin class or mountain climbing? I think you're talking about spinning. If so, did you buy biking shorts??? That makes a big difference. Way to go!!! Its so exciting to take on new and hard things!
