Is there such a thing as Too Much?

For the last few days I have been doing A LOT of exercising. Friday I was walking, standing and moving from 10am -7pm, Saturday it was from 9am-3pm. Sunday was a day of rest it seems. Monday I went to Body Pump. Today was a big day. I did Water Fitness in the morning, before picking up kids walk with BFF. Then this evening we had to walk to the River to find leaves for Camden. He needs 5 different and that is hard to do when I only have 1 tree in the yard. So that was a mile walk with 2 kids and 2 fur kids. Normally I drive to the top of the trail and then walk the remaining but today we walked from our house straight and it was a GOOD walk. The River was gorgeous, I wish I could have enjoyed it more but Bailey was choking herself and Camden kept picking up caterpillars which would be OK except that meant I had both dogs. They had a set of stairs that i don't remember from last time and Marble wouldn't go up them. Needless to say I am hurting today. My legs are KILLING me and tomorrow is another water fitness day. I want to not workout tomorrow but I am going to. I am going to push through the pain. Speaking of, i need to get my suit dried for W.F. I just wonder is there a thing as Too Much exercising. I don't want to ruin what I got by doing too much. Ya know. Tomorrow is just W.F. with Sheryl for 45min. then Thursday is W.F. with Mia for 90min. Friday is Body Pump again. Rest day is Sat and Sun. I am just amazed at how much I am able to do now. How much more energy I have? I use to get frustrated when walking with the kids and we would just go down the road and back and here I walked all the way down to the River and back. I think that was about a mile. I think next year I will see if the man will get me a bike.

Absolutely there is such a thing as too much exercise. Don't forget to give your body some much deserved rest when it needs it. :)
