The Brat Fights the Fat

Late Post

I completely forgot that I hadn't made a post yet today. Apparently starting work at 6 am on 5 hours of sleep is detrimental to my thought processes. As you can see, I was working at 6 am, which meant I wasn't at bootcamp. I'm supposed to go tonight, but it will depend on whether or not my husband can get home on time. I talked to the ladies from work that are also doing it and apparently today's class was really hard and had a lot of cardio stuff. Given my shins, it might not be a bad thing if I missed tonight. But I hate the idea of missing a class. It feels like cheating. I want to go. But, I don't.l I don't know.

I'll post more later...

I'm lame. I didn't go. I could have. My DH got home with plenty of time for me to get ready and go. I let fear talk me out of going. I've been worried about developing shin splints. I have had them a couple of times in the past (both times I tried to do the Learn to Run Clinic) and it ended up sidelining me for a couple of weeks. I really really want to finish this bootcamp and am terrified that I won't be able to due to my shins. They've been sore, maybe not quite shin splints but maybe the early stages of. I was worried that going tonight and then again less than 12 hours later might make them worse. I don't know if it would have. My DH, who was a jock for 25 years is of the opinion of just work through the pain and ignore it. 'Course he has no knees left so I don't know how reliable of a resource he is on this. Oh well, too late to change my mind now. I will be going tomorrow morning though.

Eh, so big deal, you missed today. Tomorrow you'll go and everything will be fine. I feel for you on the shin splint thing.. it sucks.

I always do stuff like that and then it lays you up for a few days and suddenly the motivation is gone. I've done it with swimming, some exercise tape and walking countless times. I'm not so sure I'm able to 'work through the pain' I mean.. how do you work through something like that?!

Don't sweat it Krista. You're right, your shin splits may come back if you push it too hard and then you'd have to quit bootcamp all together. By taking the one day off you're giving your shins a rest and hopefully they won't give you anymore trouble. Hang in there!
