10:51 pace.

8:40pm; 88 F; 8% humidity; 8 mph winds

A bunch of eights, except for the pace.

Tried and did not like the p90x system's kempo workout. Too repetitious. Too much punching and kicking air. Worked up a good sweat though. I'd rather do something else like pushups, pullups and situps. Which are also repetitious, but they aren't annoying like the guy doing jumping jacks saying, "We're really jacking now!" I suppose I didn't mind doing stuff over and over, I just thought the instructor was a dork.

Not sure how I would fare in the heat like you are. sounds pretty tough when you're running in the evening and it's still 88. OUCH! Glad it's you and not me. We haven't had any snow for a couple weeks now. Weird :)

Do you have to run in full gear sometimes? I don't know what full gear is really. Combat boots I guess.

"We're really jacking now" would annoy me too. Though I LOVED kickboxing when I was an aerobics geek (before I was a running geek). I always saw myself as "tough" -- although I have to say if I had come across a robber or something I would have had to say, "ok, hold on a minute ... 1 2 3 jab 1 2 3 hook 1 2 3 sidekick now yeah yeah yeah".

That would definitely scare him away, Bonnie.

ha ha ha ha -- and you don't even know how scarey I look in the morning with my hair all spikey on one side and mad that I got up so early ;-).

I just have the slightest hunch that with your black belt, this punching and kicking air business wouldn't be much of a challenge.

"We're really jacking now"?? That's awful. Now I have to do jumping jacks at the gym with the girls next time we go and say that really loud when one of the cute guys walks by. It's like my duty as a mom.

From Bonnie on Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 20:56:24 from 128.196.228.134

ha ha ha Rachel, that is pretty funny, it is indeed your duty.

kungfu that is so funny, I just started laughing and I am sat in a quiet office, OOOps. but we over here in uk, saying jacking something else, (Rude) so its even funnier for me! LOL

Monte, good on you for sticking out the session, I dont do classes, have done now and again, but they seem to annoy me, I used to do video workouts I loved them, when I 1st had my boy, he'd sit and watch me, laughing, but it was fun...

From Burt on Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 12:29:12 from 68.76.197.194

That word continues to evolve in all parts of the world.

WOW, it is hot there!

I can not stand doing DVD's more than once, especially if they tell me I am really jacked up!

LOL yeah I was watching for a few secs the ad for it this morning getting ready to go to work. And though how annoying that would be to listen to them. They can be fun in a group setting but solo I dont think I would enjoy it much.

Not very tough Jefferey, just acclimated.

I can only manage waddling with my gear on, Burt.

Haha, She-Hulk.

Hon, Your duty stinks! That has always made you laugh...

Sam, I didn't stick it out due to toughness. I stuck to it because I'm obsessive compulsive.

Mark, luckily I was with a group and we had fun making fun of him.
