Reaching for the floor



I would like to announce to those of you that see this that I finally touched my toes! This journey has been long and painful at times, but it feels really good to have accomplished a goal.

I originally planned on being able to touch my toes by graduation, but I wasn't very diligent in my nightly stretches. However, thanks to a quick ten minute stretch almost every night for the past two weeks, I was finally able to do it.

I can't go right down and touch my toes yet; I usually have to warm up for several minutes first. But still. I've never done this before, and now I can check it off my list of goals in life. Next step: palms to the floor! Or maybe the splits! There's no stopping me now!
