In Athletic Solidarity

I fully intended to take some extra dance classes during the company’s week-and-a-half break, but I didn’t.  Little things kept coming up and before I knew it the break was over.  The new wave of rehearsals started up this week with back-to-back rehearsals on Sunday and Monday.  I certainly regretted letting the break slip by without making it to any classes, much less failing to keep  up with my personal daily workout, when I could barely get out of bed on Tuesday morning.  My body was mad at me, especially my hamstrings and glutes.  Thank goodness I had restocked on KT Tape or I wouldn’t have survived!

Every time I use KT Tape, I am reminded of one of my favorite scenes from the movie Cool Runnings:

And I am feeling especially Olympic today with the backs of my legs covered in black tape and the 2012 games in full swing, since several Olympians have been seen using the unique colorful sports tape in years past.  So instead of focusing on my whining hamstrings, I am focusing on being in athletic solidarity with the greatest athletes in the world, and I’m pretending that it’s helping my little muscles…
