finally

I'm in a strange mood after hitting the gym tonight for the first time since last summer. It was a good class. We even got to do some sparring, which I wasn't expecting. It was a bit much for my first day back. I had to bail after suddenly becoming very nauseous. I know it's relatively normal, but I've never gotten that sick from exertion before. It wasn't the note I wanted to end on.

I'm torn as to whether or not I can blame the vaccine. Exercise nausea is supposedly normal, but never an issue I had until about a year ago. It was minor then. Tonight was worse. Could just be that I'm getting older, and my cardio needs work. Could also be because it was over 90 today. Odd thing about that was that I didn't really notice. Just seemed like a nice day.

Sparring pushes me beyond my limits, because I try so hard. I'm horrible at pacing myself. I'm sure that I need better cardio, but I'm also know I went back a bit soon. I didn't wait the recommended two weeks and my symptoms were unusually severe. Completely gone, I thought, but my appetite was weak today. I barely ate, so can't even blame it on a full stomach. So yeah. I'm ok, I don't regret going. Just.. bleh. 

Not feeling the greatest about my first day back, but I was doing great until the after class sparring. Made it through class feeling like I could maybe handle another one. That's what I've been going for all year. On June 12th, they're doing this sparring in the park thing. In theory, I should be able to bike there and participate.
