Friday 07:01am

Today was just a warm-up and the PT test, which took almost the whole hour. It was fun and Lord knows I like a competition. Also, our instructor was this cute little lady instructor who was fun. I'd hang out with her.

The test consists of 2 minutes of push-ups, 2 minutes of sit-ups, and a 2-mile run. I felt pretty good about the first two - the only girl who got more than me has been doing these camps, and subsequently PT tests, for a little over a year. The running, as we know, was somewhat below average but not the worst I guess. My scores, respectively, were 25 : 45 : 21.14.

I'd like to state that my 25 push-ups were real manly ones! Not the stupid girly ones I usually do in Kung Fu because we have to do like 50 at a time. Woo.

To get a "perfect score" a woman in my age range has to do 42 : 78 : 15.36.

I know this is ridiculously high hopes, but it would be just excellent if I could shave my run time down to 16.00 (two miles). And of course I'd like to get my sit-ups and push-ups better but those are more within reach I think.

Timer: 1 hour 51 minutes.
Calories out: 976.
PT tests don't burn as many calories as work outs. But that's ok - not every day can be the same.

Colossus got a bath yesterday and smells like blueberries and has a cute boy bandana on :)

It is outstanding what a solid 8 hours can do for your quality of life the next day. Went to bed at 8:30pm - can't complain!
