Becoming the Dancing Warrior

So...the workout plan for the weekend was to train hard, dance hard and laugh hard.
And I most certainly did all of it.

The training on Saturday consisted of 3 one hour long seminars in which we worked mostly training drills that left us on the mats tired and a little bit bruised.  We worked steadily for the three hours, the last one being a bo seminar which was an incredible workout for the forearms.  After a quick break for lunch, we headed into a two hour long seminar on karate that completely wore us out And I mean totally exhausted.  

We then headed to our rooms to relax for a bit before going out for dinner.  There was no time to nap! There was too much fun to be had!

Next on the fitness agenda was dancing and we made the most of the music by staying on the floor for pretty much the entire night.  Okay...well, maybe not "we", but definitely "me". :D



So...I would have to say that I got in an excellent cardio and strength workout on Saturday, which is good because I ordered the amazing Cheese Cappelletti from East Side Mario's on Saturday night and on Sunday I ended up sitting most of the day.  Well, except for practicing self defense with Erica and letting her throw me around so she could win a second place medal.  :)


Unfortunately I was unable to start my new fitness program this morning due to the fact that my incredibly sore and tired body was only able to maneuver far enough to reach the snooze button  and was not capable of actually sitting up until well past six o'clock.  I might have felt bad about that had I not stumbled across one of my favourite quotes this morning.


"Tomorrow is a new day and another chance to get it right."

And get it right, I will...starting tomorrow....because my feet are still pretty sore from all the dancing. :D
