5:30 Alarms

So, we all know how it feels to get up early for work or for class but for we student athletes we sometimes get up really early for other reasons. Many sports teams get up before the sun and do workouts. We do. Monday thru Thursday (its only today and tomorrow this week :)) for cardio workouts and lifting. Its really hard to get up when my alarm goes off at 5:30 in the morning but I gotta do it. We all have to do it. Just knowing that we're going to go through pain and sweat that early...ugh it just makes me tired thinking about it lol. We run sprints, suicides, lots of pushups, body squats, and probably anything else you can think of in the mornings. However, with all the hard work we've been doing I can see the benefits of if. Girls are getting faster and stronger. We're pushing each other to be better and thats what a team does, we push one another to strive to be our best. Thats the best part of being on a team. No matter the pain, the sweat, or the early mornings, there's always gonna be someone right there at your side doing the same. And getting up early isn't always a bad thing. Every week we have a game day and thats like our reward for working hard. We enjoy game days because we get to have fun AND we get our workout. Thinking up new games are the best :) 5:30am...I'll see ya next week!!! :) Well, I'll write again soon. Ttyl!!!

  1. Im excited to hear about your early practices and getting ready for the season, however; does the ":))" mean a double chin?? or really happy??

    Now for me. I've found that the best way to not worry about the early morning wake up calls is to not even go to sleep. Hey, there ya go. Problem solved.
