Lethargic Morning...

Yesterday I woke up EXTREMELY lethargic. I'm pretty sure I woke up feeling like this because of all the crap I ate the night before (heavy, oily Indian food with tons of rice). I'm telling you, I really do feel physically horrible when I don't eat well. Anywho, I woke up feeling like crapola and I was absolute dreading my 1:00pm bootcamp class. First of all, I had not been to bootcamp in two weeks. I feel this military style class is so fierce yet so AWESOME! You are definitely pushed and leave accomplishing obstacles you never thought you could.

So, I made it to bootcamp. Yesterday's class was a four person class. This was both good and bad. Good because the instructor was able to give me great attention and advice for the workout. Bad because the instructor was able to give me great attention :-p

We did our usual military style workout and then headed to the obstacle course. The obstacle course always scares me because I need help getting over the higher walls. I'm also pretty slow at hurdles. Yesterday however, I was about to go over the Discipline wall with assistance. That is, until my trainer came over to me and said no assistance, you can do this! With all the doubts in my mind and thinking if I fell at least I would land on a rubber padded ground :-p With that in mind, I jumped up, grabbed the top of the wall, "walked" up, threw my right leg over and hurled myself over the discipline wall. Once over... I was ecstatic!!!! I had so much energy and was on cloud nine :-)

I think I have a chance in conquering Tough Mudder!

The Start of Fall? ...

Officially, Fall does not begin until September 22nd but I'm already starting to feel the crisp fall air in the morning :-/.  Why the :-/ ? Well, I don't like Fall.  Fall brings cooler weather, jackets, more bags to carry and shudders of coldness up my spine.  I like running in warm weather, circuit work outs in the park, going to the beach on a hot day and eating ice cream when it's unbelievably hot outside. I don't like eating ice cream in the cold.

With that said, I am trying to focus on the finer things in life :-)  I have quite a few goals that I'd like to accomplish within the next three months.

Here they are:

• Submit my training videos to dhoonyaFit
• Train for Tough Mudder
• Finish up bootcamp classes
• Document what I eat and how I feel after wards

I am going to try to keep up with documenting on how I am doing with my goals.  

PS: One thing I do like about Fall, pumpkin coffee :-)
