So... I survived BootCamp. I took my secret weapon with me. My trainer Xavy. Haha
I completed a .25mile run/trot yesterday. The very first time I did a .25mile run was in the gym with Xavy, TWO WEEKS AGO. With him next to me yesterday, I could not stop. Pride is amazing as a motivational tool. I finished and was so excited, until Kelly said that our FIRST workout would be an additional timed mile. Bitch! I can call her that, it's my blog! I did it... it was not pretty but I finished it and great my best time by nearly 2 min. Just over a 12 min. mile. *happy dance*
After, we did a series of other hellish timed workouts. I didn't have a an actual goal in mind other then not letting myself fall more then 1 round behind Xavy. (Yes, if you can manage it...behind is not a bad view.) Squats, push-ups, jumping jacks and sit ups. I nearly tossed my cookies (Greek yogurt and almonds), but I did it. I came in only a half round behind him. Please explain why it ever crossed my mind to try and keep up with a lean, muscular, former military, body builder? Some one smack me.
I also MUST give a shout out to another shared client of theirs. Ms. Lynn Nebel. First, I appreciate her not hurting me when she found out I invited her trainer. Secondly, she finished that mile off HARD CORE! And hates running more then I do and she killed that last .25mile. Awesome.

Sister, I do HATE running! I think I will like it much better when I get some weight off me. I enjoyed Kelly's HELL CAMP on Saturday. I even postponed GOLF this Saturday so that I can make a return visit. It was great to share in the hell with a few others who were working it and sweating it out. My new motto ... BRING IT!
