It is a beautiful day in Marquette! Unfortunately, it is also FREEZING! So much so, that I actually got the call about school being canceled around 10:15 last night. It was awesome being able to sleep in this morning. Usually, on snow days, I am like a kid on Christmas; I can't ever fall back asleep because I am too excited! Anyhow, the temperatures are below zero still. It was -9 when I woke up around 8!
That being said, I went to the gym this morning instead. I don't want this blog to turn into gloom and doom/me complaining all the time, but I do need to vent about one thing. Last Friday, on my day off, I went for a pretty tough ski out at Forestville. It was especially tough because I had my first asthma attack in over 10 years. It was crazy. At first, I thought it was me being out of breath and out of shape, but at the top of a hill, I stood for about 10 minutes and was unable to catch my breath. My lungs were on fire and I was shaking and gasping for air. It was so strange! This morning on the treadmill, the same thing happened. My lung capacity is not what it used to be, which is all the more reason for me to take on this fitness endeavor. I'm not going to use that as an excuse. There are no excuses in this endeavor. I'll keep you posted on that.
