Liking the pain...

Yes you read correctly, I'm in pain and I'm loving it! Yesterday and the day before I went to heavy combat training and while I only did slow work, some of it got pretty intense. And I didn't break! Huzzah! Well, today I'm definitely suffering from all that training, old familiar aches are back and my knuckles are bloody. Not the greatest look for a corporate type but at least my clients will treat me with caution for a few days :)

And despite feeling like I've been through the spin cycle a few times, I'm actually enjoying the feeling of exhaustion. Isn't the human mind bizarre? I can't stand to go on a treadmill for more than 15 minutes and yet I swung a sword around for over an hour with no complaint.

So looks like the next step is to crawl back into my armour. Might give it a few days though, I think I need a nap...
