the battle continues...


what I learned in Cardio Kickboxing class this morning:





1. My mind may think I am still 20 but my body apparently hasn't got the memo and thinks that I am 72.

2. People still listen to that "I'm a barbie girl song," and sadley I knew all the words.

3. 130 push ups to one person means only 30 to me

4. it is an inexcusable talent to take a much hated lunge and make it even more hated and cringed at by adding a jump.

5. Just when you think you are semi-in shape you get hit over the head with a super fit Cardio Kickboxing instructor with no rhyme or reason whose main purpose I am sure is to make sure that you are incapable of walking on your own the rest of the day.

All in all.....I think I need a walker, some ice, a Mug rootbeer, and a twinkie.

Man- I wish I could go to a class with you!!! All this time I thought I was the only one who felt this way. Why am I always the only one who looks like they jumped into a pool five minutes into an exercise class? I keep begging Q to go to another one with me but I think the first one did him in.

You deserve more than twinkies and root beer. Go for an iceburg burger and fries followed by an ice-cream shake!
And then rent a Jackie Chan movie and practice some moves!

Please give Miss M a big hug every day from her nana and when she wakes up every morning tell her you have to search her head and get rid of all the birds who have nested in there overnight! She will know exactly what you are talking about!

I'm impressed... You even got out of bed to go...WOW! Have you really ran 51.72 miles???

Jynjr- yes I really did run 51.72 miles but that is the TOTAL miles I ran the whole month of April. I hope to do the Half Marathon in Cache Valley the end of August. :)

For the Record...... That class didn't do me in. There's just something about being the only guy in the class..... but then again, there's just something about being the only guy in the class!
