5:30 AM...





In an effort to jump start my fitness slump I have signed up for a women's only boot camp program. It will run for 4 weeks, 5 days a week starting on 8/25. The workouts are 1 hr. long and will begin at 5:30 am. So am I crazy or what? I think this will be good for me. I've really been struggling for motivation lately and I feel like this could do the trick. Plus, I've already committed the money so that ought to get my ass up in the morning. Mr. R is one of those "pain is good" types so I think he is more excited then I am about this adventure. I'm actually a little nervous about the whole thing. This is a pretty big commitment and I haven't invested this much time in myself since before I had kids. I have one other small concern and that is I hope I'm not the only black woman there. I like white people, some of my best friends are white but the truth is it gets tired being the "only" one sometimes. Don't get me wrong I will rise to whatever occasion I am confronted with and make lemonade, cause thats what we do. Oh, there is one other concern, my hair is going to look like crap for 4 weeks. I'm pretty sure I will be so tired I will have little else to blog about so expect to hear plenty more about my boot camp experience.

You have so inspired me, that I too shall take a bootcamp class. I have been doing some research on classes in Jers, and there are quite a few. As soon as I scrape up the funds and mentally prepare myself for the 5:30 a.m. classes, I will join you. It's probably the jumpstart I need to my current regimen to finally see some results and so that I can shimmy myself into my red velvet holiday party dress!

Keep us posted as to your results!
