Day 3

Today, we mapped out our mile course for running and did various excersises along the way. I was sore when I got up this morning and today, I did hit the snooze button, but after I got up, I was excited to see what was in store for us.

This is my post from yesterday on the GR Bootcamp Page:

"Early this morning, as I was "running" across Sixth Street Bridge in the dimness, I gazed down the river (it took me a while to cross). It was so beautiful. Quiet, peaceful, still and serene; words that are not part of my usual vocabulary. I've lived in GR my whole life but I'm always in such a hurry to do this or that or take the kids somewhere or get to or from work or somewhere else that I don't think I've ever in my adult life taken the time to ENJOY this place that I call home. This boot camp is more than just excercise, shedding a few pounds or getting fit. This experience is teaching me the importance of TRULY taking time for ME. Time to reflect, to realize what/Who motivates me, to understand the reasons that I am who I am, and the reasons why I NEED to continue on this journey. The reasons that this needs to be about me, and only ME. I'm so happy that I made this investment of my money and of my time. I can't wait till tomorrow..."

Tomorrow we will have our "Fitness Evaluations". I'm not dreading it but I am not really excited to see how poorly I score in some areas either. I know my endurance isn't great and I know that my upper body is pretty weak, as well. Although I hate running, I'm looking forward to running the mile course on my own so I can see what my time will be.
