I should be in bed but I forgot I haven’t been on here all day!

Friday kickboxing was the shi*!!!!! I had so much fun!!! But I did not make it to HIP HOP! I chickened out. OH WELL, I have another Friday to do it.

Saturday morning I thought I should take the day off from exercise. I didn’t get up to eat early like I would on days I do exercise. 10am rolled around and it’s still cloudy out. I decided why not right? After adding some of those little electrolytes pack thingies to my water I took off for a 5 mile run. Yes Blaithin, I took it outside. But it was horrible. First mile I couldn’t do, second, third, fourth and fifth. I did not have my usual level of energy. Came back home and did some yoga by the poolside. That is until the two nephews started doing it with me and the two yr old was sitting on my head during pigeon pose. That was the best part of it.

I WILL NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER RUN WITHOUT EATING MY USUAL BREAKFAST OR PRE-WORKOUT FOOD!!!

How do people exercise without eating? I don’t understand it because I just can’t!!! NO WAY NO HOW!!!! I’m fit and I felt like that was the first time I ever ran in my whole life!

We went to a wonderful show and dinner with Pirates and all that good stuff with my whole family. We had such a great time. I ate everything from appetizers, to the full dinner, ate off my two nephew’s plate and brought the rest of my food home for tomorrow’s lunch. I did not worry about the calories. AHHHHHHHH that was the first time I had mashed potatoes in forever!!! And chicken strips!!! And little sausages!!!! Yep, all the little kids food!!

Sunday, I’m getting up early, eat a large breakfast so I can do my own BOOTCAMP workout!!! OH YES!! My bootcamp workout consists a lot of free weights with 2 min cardio kicks in between sets. I also use the BOSU, the stability ball and medicine ball. The great thing with using the Aerobics room after all the classes is the SPIN bikes is in there and I can jump on for the cardio kicks. I also love doing lunges across the room with 30 lb weights which is light but walking lunges takes more effort then stationary ones. Oh and my lovely lovely push-ups! Then yoga to finish off my morning.

It’s early morning, no way am I going to catch up on blogs, forums and what not. Will do so Sunday. MISSED YOU GUYS!!!!
