I'm allergic to exercise!

I'm allergic to exercise. Whenever I exercise my face turns red, I become out of breath, and I start to sweat a lot. Afterwards I'm really shaky. The worst symptom comes the next day... as I try to get out of bed. Ouch..
I wish this was my excuse for not being engaged in much physical activity over the past few months! Haha but sadly, it's not. Last night I made the foolish mistake of giving a whack at the new tread-climber that lives in the basement. I was feeling so great until about the uh.... fifth minute into my workout. I kept going and going. When I was finished I could hardly walk straight-I think I used to make fun of people like this!
Anyway, the shakiness wore off and for the most part I felt pretty good. I had a great sleep, and I felt refreshed when I woke up--until I moved. The sore-ness in my back and legs made me feel for a moment that I had just woken up as an old crippled woman. I'm hoping that this was just a first-day-of-exercise-after-being-lazy-for-three-months exercise experience, otherwise my fellow students at school might mistake me for their grandmother.
