Day 24 - 25 -26 - Almost there ... [ class 25,26,27]

I feel like the rabbit in Alice - I'm late! I'm late, for a very important date! No time to say hello, goodbye! I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!".

Tomorrow concludes my 30-day challenge. Mission accomplished. Well, as long as I go to class tonight and do a double tomorrow night. Initially I was debating between a 30-day and 60-day challenge. I've decided to revisit my options on day 29.

Well, it's not optional at this point. My boss just dropped a bomb a couple of days ago "Be available in April. We are going to have a 5-day offsite retreat". OK, here you go. I was a little disappointed at first. Last night I spend 1 hour adding and subtracting days. Let me explain. I officially started this challenge on March 1st but I've been going to Bikram class nonstop since 2/16, that is 12 extra days. I know, going backwards is cheating BUT ... I thought I could just consider doing 18 more classes and voila BUT it's not going to work. First, I won't be able to do 5 doubles at a later time. Second, I have other family responsibilities. I am not feeling bad about it. I am just going back to my 5 days a week practice. It's all good!! Maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to do this every single day of my life :)

As for my last three classes...On Friday, I woke up early and wrote in FB "nothing is going to stop me from "taking off like a 747" this afternoon, not even this bad cold!!! Gosh, I am feeling like crap". I went to the 4:30pm class with fever but I managed to stay in the room. My mantra is actually "never NEVER leave the room". I was back at the studio on Sat for 4:30pm and Sunday for 10:00 am. I couldn't breath then but now everything is clear. Feeling great again!!
