Hey Buddies:
I am feeling so grateful right now. I was leaving home this morning to drive to Orange Theory for my workout, had a spin out and ended up facing the wrong direction on the road!
Fortunately, I didn't hit the concrete median and the oncoming traffic was still at their stop light. I was able to drive back up the ramp and get out of the road but realized I had a tire issue! Not great when in subzero weather in Minneapolis!
Car is at the garage getting a new tire BUT I am super irritated I had to miss my exercise!!!!
I am dedicated, determined, and diligent

Very grateful you weren't hurt and your car got off with just a tire problem. I can understand why you are upset, but at least you have the rest of your life to exercise.

I'm sure your heart got a good work out. I have had a few close calls on icy roads and it can take 20 minutes or more for the heart to quit racing. Glad you are OK.

Wow, so glad you are ok, HCB!!! I had almost the exact same thing happen to me about 15 yrs ago (spun, ended up backwards on the expressway RIGHT NEXT to the median, but didn't hit it!) Scared the living daylights out of me. So glad nothing happened, and I hope your next weigh-in surprises you and makes up for the missed workout. :D

I agree with Lady - that stress was probably a total cardio for the day. Amazing you are more upset about missing the workout than the wrong direction & tire ordeal - I'd be like 'exercise, what exercise...'

Wow! Scary. I had something similar happen many years ago but was lucky to avoid any damage to my vehicle. I'm glad you weren't hurt. The exercise will still be there tomorrow!

I am just happy you are ok.You can get another tire and exercise another time but we cant ever get another YOU! I don't drive at all when the roads are bad(2 bad winter wrecks,1 in a 4x4)I hate winter.It is final warming up.Some of the schools are open and businesses are running again.

If you don't survive, you can't have your workout tomorrow. Look at it that way. :) Fortunately, where I live, if my vehicle gets turned around on the road like that I have to watch for crossing moose. (Low cholesterol and delicious!)
