Thursday Night Bootcamp

Tonight’s bootcamp was intense!  Bootcamp tonight: Run 4 laps, 100 Squats, 50 situps, 25 pushups, 25 lunges, 25 pushups, 50 sit-ups, 100 Squats, Run 4 laps again.  I don’t think I have ever sweated so much in my life!  My big accomplishment was that I ran the 4 laps in the beginning and the 4 laps at the end without stopping.  This tiny accomplishment made me feel really happy!  It’s the wonderful small little pushes you give yourself that make all the difference.  At one point, I think while I was doing one of the sets of 100 squats, I could feel my heart POUNDING inside my chest.  I just thought about how hard my body was working.  I almost stopped at the last set of 100 squats – I reached 80 and I felt really sick to my stomach and started actually feeling a little cold – like my body temperature was going down.  Josh, one of the trainers came over and helped me do the final 20 squats.  Then I ran my 4 laps and it felt sooo good to be done!  It definitely felt like an accomplishment of mind + body.
