That didn't go so well

I attended the Camp24 class this morning at 24 hour fitness. ugh, where do I start? First off, the class was pretty hard. We lined up aerobic steps in a long line and they each had two platforms under them, so they were pretty high. Then, we started going in circles, doing different cardio exercises on these steps. It was hard because I was not an-all star athlete like the rest of the women in the class, I was still keeping up ok with the rest of these steroid built hewomen, but I was lagging a little. Then, on one of the circles on these steps, I completely ate it. I didn't just fall forward a little and catch myself. My face and the floor were good compadres for a few seconds as I just sat there and thought, "Oh my word, this is not happening!" Luckily it only lasted a few seconds, but I mean really, how could you not have noticed a spectacle such as this. My throat began to swell up and I just wanted to cry. i was about to, I don't know how I didn't. on top of the crying and the embarrassment, I just giddied up and kept on truckin'. I didn't go near those aerobic steps for a few rounds for fear of more flopping flat on my face. But hey, I can't let this stop me. I was working just as hard, if not harder, then those other machine like creatures in there. So whatever. But next time I do go, I may stick with one riser on my step and not two. Oh, by the way. I thought the only way to truly exhibit just how embarrassing this was is a short video clip. This video really is not much different from what I experienced. Watch Mr. Hot stuff in the front with like 4 risers on his step.
