I like this quote. I'm sure someone has said this before, or at least something like it, but the only person I know to attribute this to is Jillian Michaels. Jillian used to terrify me, but now I'm a fan. I'd like to experience one day of being trained by her -- I can only imagine that it would be agonizing, but it would get the job done. Trainers are amazing. I feel indebted to my trainer, Shay ... we started working together a year ago in May, and she's been such a positive influence in my life. I credit her for helping me crawl out of what was an almost debilitating ten months of grieving. After suddenly losing my dad to heart disease, she helped me channel my grief and fear into something positive and proactive. I only get to see her once a week now, if that, but her "Shay-isms" are always top of mind.
She's helped me set some running goals, so now I'm off for some interval training. My calves are nervous.
