Boot Camp Day 2

I was pretty wiped last night. We were watching Big Love at 9:00 p.m. and I really wasn't sure I was going to make it through. I was asleep about 30 seconds after getting into bed. Yeah Exercise!

This morning I was a little sore in my quads, but not too bad. The bike ride to the gym was awesome today because Tim pumped up the tires last night. I knew they needed it, but I didn't realize how badly. It took about 5 minutes less to get there and about 50% less exertion.

We again warmed up by walking around the track. About half way through a little girl (18) started running, so I ran with her. She will help push me and I am pleased she is in the class! Then we got a lengthy explanation of all the universal machines. It took forever. There were way too many of us and way too few machines. We were supposed to do a machine and then run a lap and then repeat. It was chaos. I only got to do a few machines so mostly I ran the track. They said 10 laps on that track is a mile, so I ran about 2 and 1/2 miles today.

We also had a pushup test. I was able to do 20 "real" pushups, so hopefully in 4 weeks I will be able to improve that. All in all, I would rate bootcamp today as a 5. It was too crowded and chaotic. I got a fine workout in, but not as good as yesterday.

After boot camp I rode to the other rec center and swam 50 lengths of the pool. Then I rode home. Then I had to have a sammich. This afternoon I had pilates and pump....All for a grand total of 5 hours of exercise today!!!! YAHOOOO!!!!
