...and it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. At least, not at first. Then I woke up the next morning (and the next morning!) and my legs and arms felt rather heavy. And a bit sore. I was ecstatic! I love knowing that I'm stronger than I was! I had to do the modified version of a couple of the exercises, but it was a great workout and I'm excited to get to the point where I can do Level 2 completely unmodified and not wake up sore the next morning.
A couple of times during the workout, when the moves were especially challenging, Jillian said things like, "You wanted to do Level 2! Alright, then, here's Level 2!" I enjoyed her friendly trash-talk. :)
I didn't go on a long run yesterday. I missed it. I think running four times in a row in Idaho Falls last week was a little hard on my hip and right foot, since I haven't been running that many days per week in a really long time. I've got a slight case of plantar fasciitis in my right foot, but I have found a stretch that seems to be healing it! It's called Toes Pose. Check it out if you're similarly pained!
I felt so tired and sluggish last week, for some reason. After taking an extra rest day and not running as much as usual, I'm looking forward to some good, hard workouts this next week.
I hope you're all enjoying the Christmas season!
Our dog, Olly, and our Christmas tree.
