Noon meeting today, so I skipped out of work this morning and did 9 am Boot Camp. Different instructor, not nearly as hard stations, but it was good to see a different way of doing some exercises. We did 30 second planks after every 1 minute station, and that was pretty awesome. After 30 minutes we did a core pyramid, 50 crunches, 40 mountain climbers, 30 elbow crunches, 20 legs out & in, 10 scissors, then climb the pyramid back to the crunches. It wasn't killer, but it was good. At the end of the whole session, when stretching, my arms and legs were so sweaty I couldn't grab onto them without using a towel. Success.

Hey Russ. Boot camp sounds awesome. I would never want to go.

Kam, you would totally rock Boot Camp. I'm glad you would never want to go as I would feel puny.

Hope your boss doesn't read this blog and see that you "skipped out of work"! Nothing like a dedicated employee... i mean runner!
