This Street of Mine: Building muscle stamina (again)

This Street of Mine: Building muscle stamina (again)

Let's just be real, Monday's are never easy. Especially knowing you are halfway through the month of August. I want to vomit. For me, being an academic, my "season" is about to start. I've already seen the back to school commercials, Halloween candy in the store, and pre-season football scrimmages happening.

It's important to get that Monday am run in before the storm of back to school craz-craz starts.

This morning before my Cal- Zone Bodyshred at 6am, I wanted to get a quick run in. Besides people waiting on the bus to go to work the street was bare.  I kind of felt like Usain Bolt (in my head I was.)

The street was mine for the taking. I could run in the middle of the street if I wanted. I could run on the sidewalk or I could zig-zag across the street.  LOL. Too many options at 5:30am but I could.

I ran to end of the street and ran back to the Cal-Zone.

It had been a while since I went to Bodyshred class and I was a sweat pool, dead pool, tired pool of something.  My muscle stamina was not as strong as it had been. It happens.

You go on vacation, take a break, or go into a blissful drinking and eating binge.

I own it, I accept it, and will not beat myself up over it. It's done. Today was a new day to work on building that muscle stamina and reduce the wine consumption for the week. :)
