Sore

There's pain everywhere.

I work out almost everyday, and I climb at least twice a week, but this is ridiculous. Ten minutes in ocean water, bodysurfing and playing in the waves, should not have this effect on me. I haven't spent that much time at the beach this summer, at least not like last year, so when Marc and I jumped into the water on Sunday, I was nervous.

I'm not a strong swimmer, and I'm not even confident in a swimming pool. Put me in the ocean with more things factored in - riptides, waves, etc., etc. - and I'm probably just an accident waiting to happen. So I guess my shoulders were tense and everytime I dove into a wave, I was stressing out about getting back up.

So Monday morning I was sore. But my cousin flew in from Chicago and he came over with Dean and Vincent. The mission: to go to the beach. Darn. So back in the water we went, and as expected, I was tense. I would dive into the water screaming "no!" in my head (and maybe aloud too haha).

So here I am. Sore from head to foot. I want to climb but can't. I've almost used up the whole tube of Ben-Gay I had here. I feel like I'm getting a workout everytime I move. Ugh.

Next time you go to the ocean, strap one of those big yellow inflatable ducks around your waist and give your poor shoulders a rest!
