Orbit Bar, Birthday Lunch & Mardi Gras meets Bootcamp


So I had a few social engagements on this weekend. Obviously when I agreed to attend them all I was under the impression that Friday was my last day at Bootcamp and I could maybe have a little relax and a drink or two. 5am this morning (Monday) the alarm jolting me from my sleep and I realised that all the cocktails, wines and bourbons I had on the weekend were going to hurt more now than the hangover I woke with yesterday morning.

This morning it was great not to be a "new" recruit at Bootcamp. As the groups came together I recognised the look of fear on the new peoples faces, that priceless look of "what have I got myself in for?"! And a few of us were worried they might be faster or stronger than us.... time would tell. The rest of us who had returned went off and trained as one group whilst the newies did the fitness test. So we ran from Bronte to Tamarama and our instructor Jayne made sure we ran up ALL the staircases that were on the way(including the ones OFF the path for those of you who know the area), plus the finale staircase at Tamarama beach (it is a killer, bigger than the one at Coogee on Friday) so the legs were shaking a bit at the end of today's session!! Of course in between our running we had breaks where we did squats, lunges, push ups and sit ups.

So back on track this week, have a busy gym schedule ahead of me and I am hoping to get my first publish in my new motivation 06 blog. Have a great week.
