Lo Lo Lo Lo Lohan

I love Zach Anner. He's a hilarious comedian who uses his disability in a positive way without making himself a trope. He made this workout video several years ago and Shmoyoho songified it to this awesome jam. Full disclosure, I listen to it to get pumped up when I'm feeling low. 
In the original video, he has lots of motivational phrases, but I really love the one they capitalize on in the song - "it's never to late to get back on track." Sure, Lindsay Lohan is the comedy punch line to go along with the encouragement, but I'm gonna run with it - someday literally. 
The past few weeks were thrown off track with that nasty blister business. I got pretty down about it, but, as Zach encourages us all, it's never to late. Tomorrow is a new day - and today wasn't all that bad. Really, this week was a lot of productive catch up and self care, but I'm looking forward to more improvements which are what I want to report weekly. I'd love the encouragements and prayers to stay focused on the responsibilities I have this week while pushing myself with new physical gains.
