This ain't no kids game!

I swear that the boot camp instructor has been following me. When I went out for a run, I saw him, and he started asking me when I was coming back to boot camp class. When I went for a bike ride, I saw him and he started asking me when I was coming back to class. Then, when I went to the swim pool, he was there, asking me when I was coming back to boot camp class.  

So... I went to boot camp class today. Yikes. After a summer break, my body seems to have forgotten everything I learned. When I was done, I felt like I was going to barf. 

Ran around the lake and then went to swim class. I found a friend in swim class that agreed to run a 5k with me before class next week.I hope I can keep up with her.

My muscles are sore from boot camp yesterday,  the first class back after a 6 week summer break, and I paid the price.  I keep wondering - why are there so many steps to get upstairs?  

The little neighbor boy, who I hadn't seen for a couple months, looked me over today and said, "Wow, it looks like you put on a few pounds." I told him thanks for the compliment.  I guess the extra weight I put on over the summer is showing...too much carb loading on non-race days. :)

Legs were tired from too many lunges the day before, but decided to keep my promise to myself and run. I now have a base time for a 5k run.  The race was mostly for the HS cross country team, but a few members of the community ran too. I was happy I wasn't the last one to finish. I beat 5 of the HS girls, yeah!
