Stronger...

This past week was our Spring break. It started the way all the others did, you know, sleeping in and being lazy. By Wednesday, I felt terrible. I decided that I needed to get out of the house and get some exercise. That's what I did...I went to the track and walked.

Some of you are probably wondering why I didn't go to boot camp. Camp Gladiator schedules a recovery week between camps. During the recovery week, I can attend free Bold workouts (this is the benefit of being a bold member). I attended it too, it was at 5 am on Thursday. We also have 20 minute workout during our week "off"...

Twenty minute workout is (in my opinion) the hardest workout I have ever done. It is always the same. Bethany does it with us. I remember how hard it was for me in January, I felt so defeated. I am glad Bethany made me finish. This workout is designed to let us see how much improvement we have made during camp.

I beat my time again! Not by much, but I was better, 43 minutes and 17 seconds...a little over two minutes faster than last time. I was shocked. You see, I didn't think I would be able to beat the time from last time...and I wouldn't have if Bethany hadn't kept me focused...I was VERY distracted!

I have thought about several things this week...one of the major things would be this: It is okay to whine, it is okay to struggle, it is okay to complain a little bit, but it is not okay to quit.

Right now, you may want to give up. Don't do that...find someone to support you and keep going. Find that strong person that is inside of you (there really is one in there) and make it your goal to become the best person you can be.

Buddy week is coming up. I would love for you to be my guest at Camp Gladiator. I would love to support you and watch you grow! You are stronger than you think...

Be blessed!
