Weekend before last I was a miserable mess with a 72 hour flu. As someone who "never" gets sick, that really sucked. It took me out for a few days, but worse still it took me out of the gym for longer. While I could finally work and do every day stuff again after a few days, I lacked the energy to get to the gym.
Last week I've regained my strength, health and energy and have been Spinning like a mad woman once I got the motivation to get back into it. I've upped my sessions because while I was down, I ate my weight in food - and bad food!!! Hello pudgy, not nice to see you again. And with this weekend up in QLD with Pete looming on my mind, I had to make a rash change! THe first class back was pathetic, I had already lost the ability to sprint for more than 30 seconds. UEghhhh disappointing!!
So anyway, speaking of this weekend away, it takes away two of my big training sessions which sucks since I'm back on the bandwagon! So this morning I got up at 5AM to get up and make it for the 6AM SPIN CLASS at the gym. New records are being broken here, people. When I stumbled around this morning looking for my pants in the dark, it reminded of the last time I got up that early which was the last time I went overseas. It had that kind of unnatural feeling about it.
After every Tuesday night time class, the instructor - Rachel - says "Thanks, and see you all Thursday morning for 6am Spin!" where everyone has a good chuckle at her joke afterwards. She's been doing the "line" for months now, and it always has the same response. She tries so hard heh and it's funny cuz it's a mental time of morning to be at the gym... except for me today when I rock up and I announce "IT FINALLY WORKED!".
She literally did a double take and was overjoyed! So that means I get picked on in class to push harder which means I'm hurtinggggg/feeling gooood now. She's the toughest instructor on the timetable and I looooove it. :P
Yesterday Sydney had it's coldest morning in over 60 years!! It's been getting down to about 2 degrees Celcius where I live, and to -4C further out in Western Sydney. HOLY FRIG THAT"S COLD.
I'm currently sitting on top of the heater and thawing out my extremities.
So on top of getting up at ridonkulous hour this morning, I'm flying to Brisbane tonight, yay. Very last flight, I get in at 11pm. Schleeeepy. We're having a long weekend and heading up to his sisters' farms for the weekend. Looking forward to seeing the girls (his nieces) and the farm I've heard to much about! I'm already spoiling the girls with gifts like a fake-Aunt should. Haha.
