Photo-a-Day: Something beginning with 'F'

Fitness. 

It's not something I usually do for the pleasure of it. I don't love exercise. Sad but true. I wish I was addicted to running and jumping and swimming and getting active, but truthfully I'd rather bake cupcakes while sipping on a glass of wine. Not the best for my thighs!
So I exercise. Because I must if I continue my refusal to diet / cut out delicious food. 

But, as much a I hate to admit it, that feeling after a great workout is actually really wonderful. ( Although said feeling is not enough to make me want to exercise again the following day.) So to make it bearable, I drag my like minded friend along, and we try giggle our way through crunches and lunges. 


DropKick Media snapped this pic of us tonight stretching after our workout on the fields outside the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

    I'm totally with you on the working out thing. I have to make myself do it. I absolutely hate it. I will usually find an excuse to not work out. But if I want my brownie every day or my wine, then I make myself. :)

    Workouts are always better with a friend! I don't love to exercise either but it's so ingrained in my lifestyle that I feel weird if I don't do it.
