Tomorrow is the day! Mud Factor ! Will and I bought the Groupon for it at the beginning of the year, along with a couple co-workers and a co-workers friends. I’m pretty excited! I love getting muddy! I just hope I have enough strength to get through ALL the obstacles. Hope those pull-up exercises help me tomorrow with those walls I have to climb over! =P
I should be asleep now but it’s okay cus our wave isn’t until 2pm so we’ll have enough time to cook a hearty, filling breakfast and get some good stretching/a warm up in. I bought chicken sausage, uncured turkey bacon and maple agave syrup for pancakes tomorrow from Trader Joe’s. I’ll give the verdict on the last two since it’ll be my first time trying them!
Anyway, I was a bit apprehensive about Mud Factor because on Monday and Tuesday, I worked out pretty hard and did some extensive leg work. I was SO sore! By Thursday I could hardly squat to sit on the toilet, lol. I decided to do an Epsom salt bath (even threw in a bath bomb I got from Carmel) and it was a-ma-zing. I felt totally relaxed afterwards (slept like a baby…so much I slept in and was an hour late to work this morning, oopsy!) AND my muscles feel almost back to normal. Whew! I don’t know what I would’ve done tomorrow if I was still sore. Epsom salt baths definitely get an A+ in my book!
Okay, I’ll make sure to update again soon with pictures from Mud Factor! 🙂
