Day 22 - Burn baby, burn

Forgive me Father for I have sinned. I'm being really slack with my blogging, I need to get my act together and post a few more times a week.

I've got a few friends who have completed / about to complete PCP and all of them talked about the satisfaction of completing a session, muscles burning and collapsing on the floor in total exhaustion. Over the last 10 days I've been really pushing myself and I now know exactly what they're talking about. There is something incredibly satisfying about the feeling you get after you've pushed yourself to your limit. A lot of this is obviously to do with endorphins but I think there is something psychological at work here too. It's knowing that what you're doing is hugely positive and will reap results if you keep it going. I now look back and cringe at my days in the gym when I hardly broke a sweat.

I'm starting to see a lot of things very differently now, and this makes me happy. I may not look like an Olympic swimmer by the end of this, but my mindset will be vastly improved
