No Pain no Gain

So...Amanda and I decided this past weekend that it would be a great idea to subject ourselves to a 3 hour Zumba class. No pain no gain, right? Well, we were definitely in pain for 3 hours....and now we have gained an entire week of more pain in the form of backaches, charlie horses, really sore calves, knotted up shoulders, etc, etc, etc.

Yep. We gained alright. : ) We also gained a little confidence, seeing as how we made it through that many hours. We gained the right to pig out a little at dinner, seeing as how we burned almost 3,000 calories. We gained a little tighter friendship...seeing as how we had to keep each other from death on the Zumba floor. Thank goodness Amanda thought to bring the mix...my blood sugar was pretty low at one point. Yeah, I've heard it said after near death experiences with someone...there is a special bond. Well, let's just say that Amanda and I bonded.

Even MM#1 and MM#2 came for a little bit to try it out. They didn't stay long, though. But they sure were cute trying to Zumba.
