unedited for 100 days. Day 35

I had a quick little side chat with a friend of mine after our workout today. We both had been late to class, which starts with 30 minutes on the bike followed by 30 minutes of strength training. After we both had dropped the kids off in the daycare room, we were at least 10 minutes late to join the workout. There were no bikes left because the class was waitlisted, so she ran on the treadmill and I geeked out on the assault bike (you can probably look it up if your curious what this is) in the back of the room. As little as I could participate in the spin program the instructor was offering, I felt energized by the women around me. For me, just being a part of the room was all I needed today. After all, I did manage to jog the baby and dog to and from class which had little to do with wanting the cardio workout and more to do with soaking up as much sun as possible on our first seventy degree day of the year.  So after my very mediocre performance of a workout, I chatted with my tardy workout buddy as we related on the simple victory of participation. We high-fived one another in complete understanding and support. Showing up was our win, and we would go on with the day feeling like winners. We din't think twice of the 10 minutes we lost in the beginning of class, but we celebrated the fifty minutes we had, calling it our bonus workout. It was a reminder to me of what it means to live in the attitude of abundance.
