A couple weeks ago, I got it into my head that I too wanted to be a warrior :) You know, prove a point to people and myself, and say hey just because I don't have a thyroid doesn't mean I can't be a warrior!!! So what did I do I signed up for the Warrior Dash!!! The Warrior Dash is a run/obstacle course and at the end you get to claim that you are a Warrior! You have to crawl through mud, jump over stuff, clumb stuff, and whatever else they decide to throw at you. I unfortunatly, haven't had much time to train, and even bootcamp has been on the backburner thanks to a super busy work schedule, but I am looking forward to the experience either way. When I signed up, a couple weeks ago I thought to myself I am not going to do this for a time, I am going to do this for fun, for me and to prove that I am a warrior! The race is next weekend and I do feel slighly nervous since I haven't been able to train like I would have liked. This week, I am going to try and get some work-outs in starting with a bike ride today, bootcamp tomorrow, bootcamp wednesday, and hopefully some light walking or running on Tuesday or Thursday. I am going to try and stick to the plan as much as a I can, but unfortunatly this week is going to be stressfull to infinity and beyond. Somewhere between all this I also decided to try a new brand of medication, I was noticing that the Synthroid was giving me some really bad headaches, one day I tried the other brand that doctor gave me and no headache so I just kept with it. My energy has been a little low on some days, but I have also be under a ridicoulus amount of stress so it's hard for me to say where my lack of energy is coming from. So wish me luck in my becoming a Warrior Adventure!!! I can't wait to update my blog with some pictures!!! In case you are curious about the Warrior Dash here is the link:

This is my first time on your blog. Recently, I was told that I could possible have Thyroid issues. :( I am hoping, diet and exercise can keep it in check. I will be back for more inspiration.
ReplyDeleteHi Reginia, I am so glad you found my blog!!! Thyroid problems are no fun, but with the correct medication, diet and exercise they can be managed/tolerated. I still have my days, I guess I always will but I have found that it has been so helpful that I have been able to find people with similar issues. I hope that if you do have Thyroid issues that they are able to help get you on track. It tough, but hang in there. Let me know if you have questions or you need anything :)
