( This was because I wasnt feeling well at the end of the day and missed some workouts)
I woke up this morning feeling pretty good. I headed off to breakfast which was an English muffin with bacon and eggs on it. Pretty tasty.
I opted to do the hike "White Rocks Reversed" It was a slower pace which is what I was hoping or because I am trying to give my ankles a rest after yesterday. The scenery was stunning :) We were climbing around on crazy sandstone formations. There is one called 'piano rock' that has a rock shaped like a grand piano on the very top of the hill. I of course had to make sure I did a dorky picture "playing" the "piano". lol During the hike one guest fell on the sandstone and ended up breaking her ankle. The paramedics had to come get her off the trail. Thankfully it was her last day here so she didn't have to cut her visit short. I hope she is feeling OK.
After the hike we had cardo intervals. I enjoy that class because it always goes quickly.
Lunch was sloppy Joe's.. yeaaaah definitely not my favorite dish! It had a good flavour, but there were white beans in it that had a funny texture. It was a fun lunch because the group of women I was sitting with decided to torment the poor kitchen boy.. His cheeks were quite red by the end of it..lol
After lunch I went to circuit training and developed a really bad headache on the top of my head. It felt like my brain was rattling around. I pushed through and it wouldn't go away :(
After circuit training I went to cardio disco jam. The headache progressed and I ended up quite pasty looking and dizzy. My vision as fuzzy too. I went outside and sat against the wall and Sharon came up and asked what was wrong. She was so great. She went and got me some electrolytes and told me to go to my room and take some advil. I ran into Paige on the way and she was great as well. She said that i had been doing really well all week and not be so hard on myself. It frustrates me so much when i cant give 100 percent.
Unfortunately the days events resulted in a lower caloric burn than usual. I am hoping o be rested and feeling great for Monday so I can leave FR with a bang. I have a massage tonight. I am really looking forward to it. Lianne and I might be doing a private hike tomorrow with Marjorie instead of the stop sign hike.. I want to do Gila again because its been a mental block for me since I did it the first time. I don't want top let that hike beat me.. ..
Until tomorrow!

Brandi, you have been an inspiration for me--both before coming and while here at FR with you. I have seen you battle through times when you didn't feel well and that inspired me to keep going, too. I hope you are seeing the differences in yourself both on the outside and on the inside. You are a wonderful person and I'm so glad you had this opportunity to take care of yourself!
I hope you have a relaxing, restful Sunday. You are doing great. You are looking amazing in your pictures. ((hugs))
Despite how badly we want to keep going, sometime our bodies are just telling us to slow down for a few. Sounds like that headache was doing just that. You've done so awesome that you can't let that frustrate you. It's a new week, a new day, and a new tomorrow. From reading your blog, I think you will make them all SUPER days! And have fun doing it. :)
