Last Day of Boot Camp : (

Thursday, June 28th, 2007

Today was the last day of Boot Camp for me until September. There is another one that begins July 9 but because of my trip to Uganda, I won’t be enrolling but I’ll still be working out.

We did the normal warm up and then did some sandbag races with exercises in between. Then we did a platoon run which I always enjoy. Ended with some more exercise and 100 side straddle hops. Those hurt my knee. I had to give my legs a rest between 60 and 70.

Official Weigh-In

Bridge Run 05:45 am

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007
This was a tough run for me. My legs felt dead and I was sore a bit from yesterday’s mile run. I had to walk a few times after the turnaround. Just didn’t feel like myself today.

Boot Camp Monday

Monday, June 25th, 2007

HIIT-High Intensity Interval Training is what it is. Running (or other aerobic exercise) at a very high intensity – almost to the point of total exhaustion. And then you jog for a recovery. That’s what we did after warming up this morning. Don’t know how that will work when we do the mile run tomorrow. And then 30 more minutes of exercising. I had a huge puddle under my feet when I was done. I don’t know if I was completely exhausted from yesterday’s workout or today’s workout.

Sunday Workout

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

60 minutes on the Cybex glider – that is a good workout – and then 60 minutes on the bike. I’m a little weary.

Saturday Bike Swim

Saturday, June 23rd, 2007

Spent 60 minutes on the bike and then swam 500 meters. Just enough to slow down and cool off.
