feelin good

I'm about a week in with my bootcamp. And it sucks waking up @ 5 am. I went over to Virginia's this weekend and tried to watch a movie. Come 11 pm, I was KONKED out on her couch. I took a 5 hour nap and then drove home at 4 am. Any nut on the street probably thought I was swerving because it was late and I was tired. But I was swerving because it was early and I was tired. See the difference?

Okay, back to bootcamp. I'm in the "fast" group! However there are only two groups and the other group is called the "super fast" group. I wish I was kidding.

What I like about BTB Fitness is how the trainers running and burpeeing (still not quite sure about what those are) and mountain climbing with you.

We also fill out a daily food log and the instructors grade it in the morning. Checks equal high fives for everyone (in my mind, no one really high fives you - I wish they would. I need to practice mine). An "X" means you fail. For example, I got an "X" after going to a pampered chef party (party in the loosest definition of the word) and eating fruit pizza w cream cheese and tortilla chips with all kinds of dips. X means push ups.

Man, there is so much running. I've never really been a good runner or even a runner. At my best, I think I ran 6 mi without stopping one time. It could have taken me an hour. I'm positive I have a lot more slow twitch fibers than the regular person. Oh yes, did you know? I also have a long torso. That cant be good for running. Then its like my lungs know whats going to happen when my feet start moving at a certain cadence - they are like "Oh no you di'int" and my legs are like "Oh yes we di'". Then my lungs go "Oh yeah?" to which my legs go "Yeah, you heard. You want to say it to my face?". To which my lungs are done with the argument and die.

True story.
