FAITHNEM'S DORM ROOM

Wow!!! My first two weeks have been something else. I have begun my fall training getting myself in gear for the 2008 season and ultimately to make the Olympic team. My coach hit me hard the first day out. I was hurting sooooo bad. My breathing was off, legs cramping...hahhahaha.. what a day. I had to definitely talk to myself and dig deep for the first week.

What I am proud of is that I did not give up and get discouraged, but kept on pushing and now I am in my third week and getting in the swing of things. This week we started weight training and boy am I sore. We all know about that first week back in the weightroom soreness!!! I can barely raise my hands up to my head to comb my hair. hahahhahaah.. No pain no gain, though right!!! So I know it will pay off and this soreness will pass. I am on a mission.

My injuries from this past summer and my back are doing great. I haven't had pain, some tightness here and there, but I am doing my exercises to stay flexible and a lot of core work for stability. Things are going in the right direction.


Take care and I will keep ya posted..
