I finally get to write my blog... yippy :-)
Sunday the group met at Kerncliff Park in Burlington to do our second insane workout.
I kissed my hubby and kiddies good-bye as I left my house. When I got in the car I thought "Oh no, I forgot my raincoat, but it's ok, it's not raining". As I was driving, guess what happened... it started raining and at first it was a little drop here and there then it started coming down, the wipers were on full speed as I was getting closer to my destination, I thought "crap, I should have gone back for my raincoat, oh well, it's just water". When I parked the car the heavy rain turned into drops here and there, it was all good.
We started with skipping and stretching, once we were done with that, the fun began!!!
We went to an open area and we were divided into two groups of five. One group stayed in the open area and did: ten squats, ten squats with side leg lifts and to finish it off fifteen push-ups. This group would continuously do this routine until the other group showed up from doing: running to boardwalk then doing twenty step-ups onto wet bench, along with fifteen tricep dips. Once you have completed that you ran to second bench and did the same routine then you ran to third bench and repeated the routine. After the third routine you sprinted back to the open area where the other group was doing their workout. You then switched it up with the other group, this was done twice. After all that we walked back to original spot and did some ab work and stretching.
It was hard but enjoyed the challenge.... AND.... there were NO BURPEES INVOLVED!!! Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy :-)
Oh yes, I failed to mention, we were being filmed, yet again... even though a certain someone... Shane, had mentioned in his last email that we were not going to be filmed. Many of us were like WTF is up with the camera??? It's wet and cold out, come on... who needs to film this???
After saying good-bye to everyone I went to my car and turned up the heat in the car as well as the seat warmer. I was wet and cold and needed some warming up.
As I was driving I saw Indigo Books. I thought to myself "there is a Starbucks and washroom in there" great combo after being outdoors on a cold, windy, and somewhat rainy day.
I quickly pulled in. I ended up staying for 45 minutes. I walked around and enjoyed some quiet time to myself :-)
It was a great day. I really enjoy the routines that the Phat Chicks put us through, doing it with others helps to push us to our limits.
Tomorrow morning will be the start to this week's homework :-)
