Oh, the pain

So in gym class yesterday, our class was really small so we went to the weights room and did endurance competitions.
I'm so weak.
So we did like push-ups, chin-ups, bench pressing; the whole shabam.
The only thing I actually came close to winning was the squats.
I'm not even going to try to explain, here's a picture I drew:

That's me against the wall. Looks easy, right?
WRONG.
It was one of the most painful things EVER.
But I was doing so bad in all the other competitions I just HAD to win this one!
So it came down to the final two- me against Ingrid. Ingrid is this small quiet chinese girl in my class. You wouldn't really expect athletics from her, but that Ingrid, woo, she's a tricky one.
After 10 minutes, 26 seconds, I finally fell over (and almost wept).
Yes, Ingrid won. But she lasted 10 minutes 28 seconds.
Not too shabby.

So today, I CANT EVEN WALK! And what do I get for lasting that long? NOTHING! NADA! ZIP!
Ingrid got a freezie, arggg.
And I get sore thighs.
Think I'm exaggerating? YOU try doing that for over 10 minutes tell let me know how your legs feel the next day.

If my legs could talk, they'd scream. And beg me for ice cream. Ice cream makes everything better.

FYI- I can do 12 push-ups in one minute.
=)



And I say, HEY!
What a wonderful kind of day
You get to learn to work and play
And get along with each other!
