Captain's Workout

I actually made it to Foothill College for the Captain's workout after all. Sonya called me this afternoon and said she could watch Riley while I went to the workout and I jumped at the chance. Elisabeth got there really early and got some extra running in. I got there about 20 minutes late and the team was on the other side of the track. I quickly did some stretches and took off to try and catch up to them. They were doing lunges so I figured I could run around and meet up with them..... Uh, they took after finishing the lunges so I was chasing them all the way around. Luckily when they got to the beginning of the track they were starting lunges again....

Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Lunge 1, 2, 3. Ugh!

Carol was leading the workout and she had us run while picking up our knees really high (Wow, we look dumb). "Now run while kicking your feet to your butt" (Ah, yes this workout kicks our ass). "Now skip to the 100 ft mark" (Why don't we skip more as adults, this is way fun). "Okay Run!"

Gasp! Gasp! (I'm not going to make it)

After finishing this lap we had to pair up and share an embarrassing holiday story. I totally couldn't think of one. It seemed liked all the other stories started out with "Once when I was drunk..." but I couldn't even think of one of those. The only thing I could think of was my terrible birthdays as a child including the party that got flooded out, which sucked btw. Elisabeth guessed, after hearing this story, that this is probably why I don't have b-day parties...

Run for 5 minutes, walk for a few minutes....(repeat) Okay, Carol cannot count minutes. I'm watching the time and her clock is way off, or is it mine.

After 4 more laps the workout was over. I was happy to stretch and get back home.
