Seriously people can laugh about us in our skirts and prancing aroudn to music, but it is HARD. Both literally and figuretively.(the ice is NOT a friend!)<br />I remember when I was learning my axel (it is the only "real" jump that you take off forward and it is also the only one where in order to complete a single you need one and a half revolutions and to compete a double two and a half revolutions) <br />After I was done I would go home and find myself covered in black and blues.

I can't wait to read it!<br /><br />My most physically grueling experience was trekking up Masada at 5 am. Not only was it dark, but the people mover was not available. I had to take the "snake path" as it is nicknamed up the steep cliff to reach the mount. I was the last one to make out of a group of thirty. It is supposed to be this spirtual experience to go reach the top of Masada to pray and revel in the awesomeness of the desert. For me it meant panting out of breath and turning bright red from head to neck. Not great for group photos. It was definetly rewarding to have completed this experience. I am just so glad I never have to do it again.matana13https://www.blogger.com/profile/14875685728263627690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-44138080951230370592009-06-10T11:18:56.481-07:002009-06-10T11:18:56.481-07:00I honestly can't think of anything physically ...I honestly can't think of anything physically grueling i've ever done.

That's so awesome :)<br /><br />I think my most physically grueling experience so far would be carrying my twin daughters for 8 and a half months, being in labor for 48 hours, then having a c-section after all of that really painful labor!<br /><br />I think if I ever wrote a book (which I want to someday) it would be based off my experience of ending up pregnant at age 18 and giving birth to twin girls. That, by far, has been the most physically intense (and of course emotional) thing that I've experienced in my life so far. <br /><br />Not that being a mother at my age right now isn't hard either. <br /><br />-BreannaBreannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15838390111302423537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-40433125311011662692009-06-09T15:19:44.200-07:002009-06-09T15:19:44.200-07:00Congratulations, Tera!

It requires physical strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, grace and most importantly: discipline (which I don't have).<br /><br />I tried all the different gymnastic events during camp. It is without a doubt the hardest physical thing I had to do. I'd definitely prefer hours of belly dancing compared to gymnastics, and I LOATH belly dancing. The first time I did belly dancing, I had a cramp in my side that wouldn't go away for a week.<br /><br />And gymnastic's worse than that!

Also, I am reposting the contest at yacontests.blogspot.com<br /><br />If I was going to draw on a physically grueling experience, then I could choose one of two. I used to be in the military (no lie, but I'm also not the type). I only really started exercising before going to basic training. It took me 4 months to do one push-up. In any case, Army basic training (Boot Camp is a different branch) was the first time in my life I ever exercised 6 days a week. Running, push-ups, other stuff. I still don't know how far we actually ran on run days...<br /><br />The other experience I could choose is current (and non-military related). I want to run a marathon by the time I am 30, so I am training. I should be able to run one in October and this week I will run 10 miles for the first time ever. Training is tiring. <br /><br />Thanks!<br />Cari<br />neohippy10AThotmailDOTcomCarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02977756711641380540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-30514336593502242272009-06-08T19:41:51.367-07:002009-06-08T19:41:51.367-07:00Biking across the state (especially when it rained...Biking across the state (especially when it rained)!MDnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-86833338570895830842009-06-08T19:28:33.873-07:002009-06-08T19:28:33.873-07:00The hardest physical activity that I can think of ...The hardest physical activity that I can think of is giving birth, I can't think of anything else since I didn't play sports in school.BreiaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01114781903603896890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33681077.post-73059923353519757822009-06-08T19:07:17.708-07:002009-06-08T19:07:17.708-07:00My biggest physical challenge was being a cross co...My biggest physical challenge was being a cross country runner in high school.
