Stop and Breathe

Posted by Tricia (Melbourne, Australia) on 3 April 2007 in Abstract & Conceptual and Portfolio.

The past six weeks have been extremely hectic for me. Busy but happy I guess.

I dont know about the rest of you, but when I get stressed or simply upset, I head to the gym or I head out for a run.

So as if yesterday wasnt enough, I headed to the gym after classes today. I had the entire gym to myself. Very peaceful. Just me doing my own thing without anyone else bothering me. And I did a crazy circuit workout today - Cross Training 4km, Rowing 2km, one set of Pushups, one set of Situps, Lunges, Weights machine for the Quads and ended off with a 2.4km run.

Now this is where the problem sets in. My right leg muscle started cramping at the 1km mark of the run. However, stubborn me decided I had to finish the run. So I slowed down, upped the incline and finished it, got off the treadmill and limped back to my apartment.

This is so not funny.

I think I need to stop and breathe.
