Bootcamp Days 2, 3 and 4

day 2:
missed it because of class.

day 3:
owwwwwwww.

day 4:
owwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.

for the love of god, i haven't worked this hard since high school track. i just wish i had that same body, strength, speed and endurance i had back then.

day 3 consisted of "endurance" on the beach - meaning, run in circles in the sand for an undisclosed amount of time. it was hot and humid, and i thought i might puke. i felt like my feet were being swallowed every time i stepped down.

day 4, which was today, was all about speed. we ran to an empty parking lot where the drill instructor set up three cones in a line with the furthest about 100 yards away. i never thought my sprinting days would ever come in handy ever again, but they did today. the second i saw those cones, i knew we'd be doing some sort of ladder. sure enough, i was right. 10 to the closest one, 6 to the mid and 3 to the furthest, jogging back in between each one. also, between each set, we had to do more core/leg/back work.

the funniest part about it--i think i dread the "warm-up" and "cool-down" runs more than the actual workouts. those bitches are faster than what i normally run.

to sb, cs and tw: i sincerely apologize for the pain i've caused by suggesting bootcamp. just know that we will definitely be hott by august. or else, drinks are on me.
