Out of the Comfort Zone

I had a nice yoga session on Friday, because Saturday was going to be a long aerobic workout.

The original plan was for Sue and I to go to a cycling class at the gym, but the day was bright and warm, downright Spring-like, and so we decided on some outdoor running. I ran two miles with Sue, and then I turned to do a very difficult, never-tried-it run over the "mountain" to Port Matilda and back. Going to Port Matilda, the hill is shorter (maybe a third of a mile) and steep in places. Coming back, though, the climb is brutal: two-thirds of a mile climbing, with little steep sections every few hundred yards. I definitely considered walking for a while, but I just playing the "just get to that sign" game. I stuck it out, though, so yeah, me!

Today I did the EEE-GAD workout, and I am just about to roll out for a volleyball double-header. I just found out that we will be short-handed, so that will require some extra effort. I hope my training has served me well.
