Drummed Out - Almost

How sad. I had my exit review for the Lance Armstrong exercise program today. I am expiring. Has it really been twelve weeks already? I barely got to go. Between crazy schedules, being sick, holidays, kid stuff, I missed almost as many times as I made it.

I am surprised at how much of an improvement I have made. I don't feel it, and I gained a few pounds lately, but I can press more weight with both arms and legs than I could when I first started. I know it is that Gulik Gym. Its so easy, but it really improves your strength and I have to admit that exhaustion has been less of an issue lately.

I talk with my trainer. How can I keep going? I can't afford a membership. She gives me a form to fill out for financial assistance. I doubt that I will qualify. She takes me to see the program director. He asks if I like the program. Do I want to continue? Yes! I would love to be able to keep coming.

Not to worry. He assures me that an important part of the cancer survivor program is to find a way for me to continue. They don't want to just cut me off. He will extend my access while they process the paperwork. I am pretty sure he will find a way for me to keep coming. I am so happy! I have every confidence that something will work out. Yeah!
