Thursday 06:49am

Ok. So my timer has been going since 5am.

1 hour 49 minutes = 1,272 calories.

Today we had a different instructor. He reminded me a lot of one of our old kung fu instructors I liked a lot so that was good. And he was barefoot - said that if you have the right form, you don't need shoes. Interesting.

Also, today was primarily running (the guy explained to us that he was primarily a runner) with a 5 minute break in the middle which consisted of various sit-ups. I am awful at running. Surprisingly awful. So while today was a good workout for me, it was also nauseating. I think maybe that will be one of the biggest things I take away from this Boot Camp - better running skillz. I think out of the group of people there (30 or so) I am in the middle to upper middle in terms of fitness and athleticism. Some people there have done these camps consistently for a while so they rule at it. But like.. even most of the fat girls run faster and longer than I do - go them! On that note, I don't know how they - the very out of shape, haven't worked out since jr. high people - do it. I'd be incredibly nervous if I were them. The experience is daunting enough for me as is. So huge props on their part. I definitely think that takes a lot more guts and will power than it would for the ladies who are genetically gifted or truly enjoy working out and have for the majority of their lives.

We also did a lot of crawling around on the ground (bear crawls pushing medicine balls, squat thrusts, cherry pickers, pushups, etc.) in between sprints and my face is dirty. Haha. I was always the clean one of the family. Not.

Also, even if no one else reads this thing, it will help keep my English skills in shape. They've been deteriorating over the past couple of years whilst I study Spanish.

Work time!
