12 Is the Magic Number, Maybe

For all of my complaining I actually do look forward to strength training at Discover Strength.
The way the trainer encourage us to do better...tell me when you are at 12(trainer) so you think 12 and I'm done...not. Then they come over add resistance make you fight to get those EXTRA reps in. Oh and if they are helping someone else, keep going until they get to you.
Or the 30 leg presses followed by LUNGES!!!! Can't hardly walk a straight line, now you want me to do LUNGES!*#@*! With Luke telling me LONGER strides. Fixed him, I told I couldn't my legs were too short.
I did complain about how sore my legs were from "shuffle, shuffle, sprint" and " invisible hurdles".
Just to be told that was good, it meant I worked hard at the interval training.
Yesterday I blew my calorie consumption, my daughter opened a box of Girl Scout Cookies. Two cookies 150 calories, 4 cookies BAM! 300 calories wasted. Thats why I keep a couple of Hershey Kisses handy for emergency chocolate attacks.
Tonight will be the last indoor run at the Dome. So sad, now I have to run outside again.

  1. Imagine the amount of calories a whole sleeve of Girl Scout cookies contains. It is simply frightening! Good thing I have 4.75 pounds left of my bag of carrots and little individual cups of hummus. Thank goodness for Costco!
    You can do this Leann. Do it for all the other 46 year old women out there yearning to do the same. You are an inspiration. I'm skipping run club and going to wine club instead. How's that for motivation?
