My old tried and true, trusty, rusty, worn-into-the-shape-of-my-feet, perfect gym shoes have given me blisters on my feet. THAT'S how long it's been since I've done any form of cardio! Well now...isn't that just humbling.
I have managed to get up at 4:45 to go the gym before work. That's my only time to do such. Now that I have a son and family, I will NOT give up my evening home time with him -- therebye explaining how I got into this unshapely mess I'm in. So...4:45am it is.
Anybody else in this group have to go to the gym 2 hours before the sun comes up? It was actually fun to get back in there, and surprisingly a few of my old "gym friends" were still there, still coming in every day at that time. (that 5:00-6:30am time block is when I went for 6 months after my son was born, before I temporarily gave up lifting). I was impressed to see those guys and gals still at it more than a year and a half later. They looked good -- gave me a little extra motivation, knowing I used to be in their shoes (ones that DON'T give blisters because it's been so long since you've worn them).
Kent and Sarah...the bodpod pics were great! I have no idea what that thing is, but it was great none-the-less. I'd be afraid of slowly turning into a fly.

I feel you on the blisters...my feet keep going through different stages of blisters...I had three at the same spot...but I keep going!!! so you must keep going!!! good job on getting up early!!
ReplyDeletei have been getting up at 4am-ish but unfortunately it's to head to the hospital :( but maybe the habit of getting up early will help me work out early when i'm on a different rotation that starts later than 5:30am!
