Besides take yesterday off work since snowmaggedon was rolling through town.
I signed up for a half-marathon in October.
Now I’m sure y’all are thinking, “Oh, gee, whoop de doo, a half mary”, but allow me to set y’all straight. I’m fat, I’m slow, and I tried the whole marathon thing once before, so for now, halves are where it’s at for me.
Boom.
Now if I have any readers left after that little tirade…moving on.
Did I mention I went to the rich people’s mall on Sunday? I think I might have. Anyways, they have a Lululemon store there and I really wanted to get a new yoga mat, considering I slip and slide all over my current one and even when I put a towel over it, if the towel gets all bunched or twisted or not perfect then it really bothers me.
Lame, right?
So I bought The Mat from Lulu and used it in Tuesday night’s class. I didn’t slide around on it, but for some extra weird reason, I started hyperventilating in class. WTF? I seriously had to take a break, and chill in the bathroom for a couple of minutes until I got my shit together. Thankfully, I had chosen a spot right next to the little cubby/locker room type area with a bathroom in it, so it wasn’t like I had to make a mile long walk in front of every one and nearly pass out (or actually pass out, it honestly felt like that was coming). It might have been a dehydration thing, or that I was simply breathing a little to well in class. I don’t know…hopefully it doesn’t happen again.
So all in all, not too shabby of a week considering I only had to work four days of it. Now for a low-key weekend at home. No rushing off any where, just hanging out and getting stuff done.
Half marathons are no joke! So yay for signing up for one. That’s weird what happened in your class. I hope it does not happen again! Have a good weekend.
So weird! Thanks for the encouragement!
