On Leslie pushes you until you vomit

So this post should go before my last post but I forgot to do it in order. So we went to the gym one night, it was probably a tuesday or wednesday because that is usually when we go to the gym. We got on the treadmill which is either good or bad. This time it was not so good. We got on the treadmill and started walking. We moved it to a 10% incline, those of you that think this isn't so bad have never encountered a Leslie work out at a 10% incline. So we started out walking at a 10% incline at a speed of 2.5 or 3, but then leslie starts to move it up to 4, then 4.5, then 5. We ran at a speed of 5mph for like 30 seconds to a minute, then we went back down to 3 for 30 secnods then back to 5, then to 3 then to 5. So we did this rotation for like 5 or 6 times and finally I asked Leslie how many more we were going to do? To which she answers not very many, and I ask her for a real number, and she says 3. Then I ask if that is a realistic number, because sometimes I ask how many more and she will make up a number so that I stop asking. She told me it was a real work out. So after I asked instead of running at 5 for a minute, we moved it to 6. I was having a hard time breathing at this point, because sometimes I forget to breathe while we work out. Some of you might think that the work out doesnt seem tough, well I challenge you to do it and let me know. So before this we had done lunges at a 10% incline for a long time. So eventually we are like on our last set and I couldn't finish it. I had to get off the treadmill. I all of sudden felt like I was going to puke. So I told leslie that I need to go to the bathroom, which I proceeded to vomit once I got there. So if you ever want to know if it is a good work, it isnt' good until you vomit! I love you Leslie and thanks for pushing me in working out
