Too legit to quit.

If you ever saw this coming, then you know me better then I know myself.  Today, I walk into Anytime Fitness as the only CERTIFIED (not qualified) Personal Trainer.  Going through the process was a bit daunting.  I never questioned if I could do it.  I questioned if they thought I could do it.  It was not until I saw my name in black and white that it sunk in.  I did it.  I made it.  I will never stop learning, I will never stop trying to excel but as far as a legit trainer, I made it.  I remember blogging about wanting to do this but I am not sure that at the time, I believed that I would ever go through the process. Crazy!

Never in a million years

A year ago, if  you would have told me that I would be where I am today, I would have laughed.  I know that I keep saying that but I also keep suprising myself.  It's one thing when you don't know what to expect from other people.  It's a whole different thing when you realize that you don't even know what to expect from yourself.

Thursday night, I was in full Fire Fighting gear, the only female, the oldest in my class, standing on top of a fire truck folding a hose.  At one point, I stood up, looked around at the front of the station and looking at the town of Bel Air from the top of the truck.  Never in a million years did I ever expect to be standing in that place.   A year ago, the station was just a pretty land mark when giving directions.  Now, its work.  It's "The House".  It is where dreams are made and lives are saved.  I have no idea where this path will lead me.  I didn't know that my path was going in this direction to begin with.  I am starting to think that there are no more ends.  No more destinations, just rest stops and exits.  Standing on top of that truck, I knew right then and there that nothing is impossible.  I can and will do everything that I put my mind to.
