It's a new day!!

So after being in agonizing pain for 2 entire days with a bum hip, I woke (semi) pain free this morning!!! While I'm so relieved, it's also so irritating. The pain comes and goes as it pleases without any rhyme or reason to it. I probably should just see a Dr about it, but my inner hippie is telling me to suck it up, it's not like it hurts all the time. We'll see... Maybe I'll get lucky and go another 6 months or so without any pain. *fingers crossed*

To "celebrate" feeling better today I treated myself to a triple workout. Nothing too hardcore (at all, lol), didn't want to re-injure anything! Did about 20-30 minutes of weights, finding my 1 rep max for the final evaluation for my strength training class at school. Found out my tricep extension and leg press didn't improve at all!!! Seriously. Frustrating. But anyways... Followed that up with 20 minutes of spinning, 7.2 miles, nice little cardio burst. Then the highlight of my day... My first Bikram Yoga class in about 4 weeks!!! I swear I'll never go that long without it again, it's so not worth it.

So my plans for the week involve buckling down and finishing up everything for this semester. Once this semester is done, I'm hoping to get down to Moab over Easter to do some climbing, I'd love to do the Ancient Art route of Fischer Towers! We shall see though.


Yup, that squiggly tower in the middle :)

I'm also hoping to meet up with Shannon from Tough Chik if I go to Moab.  She will be there breaking in her new bike during the same time as I will. How much fun would that be?!?!

Beautiful area to climb - you didn't mention you'd be BASE-jumping from the tower.

That was a serious celebration! I love all your pictures of climbing, that looks so hardcore to me! I hope you get to go to Moab and climb and bike and have fun!

Thanks everyone :)

And Kovas I will NOT be BASE-Jumping, lol. I've only sky-dived once, so I'm nowhere near BASE-Jumping ability. Someday maybe :)
