Weekend Warrioritis

So yesterday I told you about The Tower, then on Friday I rode the Jet Ski, swam around in the lake for a while pulling the kids around in a tube and then taught a couple of teen girls how to drive the wave runner. For those of you that don’t know, to me a Jet Ski is the original Kawasaki stand up personal water craft as pictured above.

So today and probably for the next few days I have a case of Weekend Warrioritis. I put everything I had into yesterday and then some. Back in the day I used to ride a Jet Ski and look like the woman in that picture. Too bad that day has come and gone and no matter how much I try the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak and I just can’t even get the strength to stand on one any more so I rode it on my knees and almost drowned doing a few tricks. The wave runner, or sit down craft, is more my speed now especially since I don’t take the time to exercise.

How many times do we try and just make it through the day to day stuff and then when the opportunity comes to do something more challenging we find that we just haven’t stayed in good enough shape to pull it off and then after the fact we are in pain and ache all over for a few days.

I hurt in places that I haven't in years but regret none of what I did this weekend and given the chance would do it all again. That is the price worth paying for some fun. Who knows this may just be the motivation I need to get back into exercise.
