*cough cough splutter*

It seems that whenever I attempt any form of exercise my body launches a protest and I am smite (?) with some or other form of heinous plague.

The mind is willing but the body is not.

DOES THIS ONLY HAPPEN TO ME?

On Saturday not only did I go to the driving range...hey swinging a golf club is exercise!( You try doing it for an hour.) But I also went for a very noteworthy cross country jog.

After 2 days of the husband calling me "Athlete Wife" my body began to get exceedingly nervous and quickly became smitten with horrendous ills. It's like my body has declared some form of germ warfare on my good intentions to live up to the fast dwindling title of athlete wife.

Alas... or rather: EISH!

We got a treadmill at home and in an effort to be healthy I started out on a vigorous exercise program. Three days into it and I was sick. Seven days later the doc diagnosed acute bronchitis (trust me there was nothing cute about it!) The doc said I shocked my poor little body with all the exercise as I was very unfit. I now walk on the treadmill 4 times a week at a moderate pace and feel great!

My body gets back at me in a mean way. First time I over run the slide in the slide class and ended up on my stomach in front of the whole class. This morning I fell of the Bosu ball. Big bruise on my shin and sore head. I hate to think what will happen when I take it to the aqua classes.

O yes those slide-classes...I also did that one only once...far too humiliated to ever set foot there again.
