Day 46-50 complete....

Thanks Chaney for checking on me! I have completed days 46-49 to complete week 7! I skipped Friday but caught up on Sunday. Last night for day 50 I did fit test 4 but held off on max circuit because I had zero energy left! May double up tonight and catch up!

Day 43-45........Done!!!!!!!

This 2nd month is very difficult and very tiring!  As you can tell by not getting daily posts any more!  Well I just finished max plyo at 10:30 pm and I am drained.  Ready for bed.  Going to turn on Christmas Vacation after a shower and wake up and turn off my tv and dvd player after it is over.  One day this Christmas season I will make it thru the entire movie!

Days 31-35 complete! Bring on MOnth 2!

Finished the last 4 days of recovery week.  It was a busy week as you can tell from just now catching up on my posts!  Thinking of starting Month 2 today instead of resting today.  Going to be a busy week and now with longer workouts may as well take advantage of the rainy day today!
