So Dan says that I should post something, even when there's little new to report. So I'll do just that. I'd like to keep this blog tri-specific, but there's no doubt it will have its tangents. Bear with me.
Boot camp - good, again. First time since I started that I actually woke up late (5:50am), so had to haul arse to the park to make it in time. Good thing I lay out all my workout clothing in advance. Missed the warm up jog (boo hoo), but participated fully in the upper body workout. All I can say is that I hate - HATE - tricep dips. Almost as much as I hate push-ups.
It's strange what park activity takes place early in the morning. There is this one guy (I assume male, as I've never actually seen him/her) who is there before we arrive at 6am, parked in his tinted window sedan, who never comes out, but is there. Who knows what he's doing in his vehicle while we run and squat and crunch, but you can take a guess. Our instructor has taken down his license number and notified park authorities, but technically, he's doing nothing wrong. Dan assures me - there are strength in numbers, and we are strong indeed!
Tomorrow finishes week 1. I'm determined to have perfect attendance for the full 4 weeks, unlike last session, when a nasty flu (not swine) knocked me out for an entire week. Then we're off to LA to finally meet my adorable niece Dahlia and celebrate Mother's Day with the 'rents. Maybe my brother will want to run with me, though with his long legs and my rather slow pace, it may be more like a walk for him. Still, it could be a nice untraditional Scarpa bonding experience. The offer is out there, bro.

Hey, do you have any good swim workouts? I usually just get in and do a half mile or 3/4, some kick boarding and get out, but sometimes I get bored. Got any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteDan is smart. We may have never known about the guy/gal in the sedan with tinted windows if you didn't post today.
ReplyDeleteWhen are you heading to LA?
