I love sweat

Wanna know something strange but true? I love to sweat! I love it so much! Now mind, you I'm talking about sweating because of working out, NOT sweating because it's hot out or because I've overexerted myself in a professional or social situation. That is not fun. I love sweating when I workout. I love the feel of sweat dripping down my face. It's even better if the flow is so much that it's dripping off my face on the floor. (How's that for a visual?) It lets me know I've been working hard enough. It's my tangible evidence that I'm doing something good for my body. I don't really feel satisfied with a workout unless I'm sweating. So although I love taking Winnie for walks, I love riding my bike and I really enjoy yoga, none of these make me sweat. But when I run on the treadmill or power walk or do the elliptical full force and I'm dripping with sweat, there are not many moments in my life that compare to these. Strange but true.
