Praying for the strength to continue

Wow, I didn’t think I’d be able to beat yesterday’s time, but I finished the workout in 22 minutes 20 seconds! The time to beat is 20 minutes and I’m almost there. Very happy with the progress.

The floor wipers were slightly easier today. They are still the hardest part by far, but I’m needing less rest in between. The first set of pullups are also getting easier. It’s so strange.

I don’t know whether I need worry about this yet, but my elbow and shoulder joints are starting to get pretty sore right where the muscle attaches to the bone, particularly on the left side. I’ll have to keep an eye on it. It may be that the challenge is starting to take its toll :( The last set of pullups were really painful and I lost a lot of the time I’d gained.

Other than the joint pain, my body feels like when you worked out really hard and heavy three days ago and the DOMS are just starting to fade. Only 2 more days and I’m done. Really hope my body can stay together long enough to complete the challenge and break through the 20 minute mark.

Seeya tomorrow for hopefully the good news that I’ve broken through 20 minutes :)
