Go get em Hammer & JT Dogg!!
Kris, thanks for the feedback on the project! We need more folks to follow along and interact with it. Please do post to the FB page & share it and weigh-in whenever you can. The students are so excited about being involved. And they're really making the archaeologists think about things they hadn't considered.
We love input from people all over the world – that's only going to help this kind of thing get attention.
Just finished a cross training workout. Feels great!
You guys have a wonderful weekend.0 -
Kris, I finished my first obstacle course today!! The course is set up every Saturday by my instructors and students in a personal training certification program at a community college. I just started the program and get extra credit for it. It's a training course for Spartan races and such. Like you said, and you weren't rambling at all, it certainly was a roller coaster of thoughts and emotions. When I woke up, I tried to talk myself out of going, kept hitting snooze, telling myself I'd sleep in and go to the gym later...then realized it was crazy talk and got myself to the bleepin' course. I paired up with a super nice, supportive gal who showed me what to do. It was eye opening to see what my strengths and weaknesses are when I'm doing more real-life, functional exercises vs. the controlled, rather artificial, repetitive stuff I do at the gym. I'll be scoping out schools and parks with monkey bars from here on out too
Hammer Jammer, hope your 11 miler's going great!0 -
Carol, WTG on the workout! I will chime in. I didn't want to be the crazy woman from Michigan chiming in on the project and asking stupid questions. I'll share it, but I only have a dozen or so friends on FB and that includes y'all in there. haha
WOOHOO Amy! Happy for you and proud of you for doing it. When I trained for my first race, I was super nervous about the bars. The boyfriend took me over to a school in the evening and we tried. It was hilarious. I think I made it to three bars and hung there. haha The county parks by us have fitness trails and I do those. It is neat because I always run into people training for a race. Also the trails I like have guys who go out to train at. They crawl, burpee, run...all kinds of stuff. They invited me to join but I have never gotten up the nerve.
Strength training and short run are on the agenda tonigh. It has been really humid, so I want to wait until evening. Oh, a big decision was made in our household last night. I will share more tomorrow. Cha-cha-cha-changes coming.
Have a great weekend!0 -
Kris, I remember you saying you like to crab crawl...I'm sure you'd be a great addition to the group on the trails if you come around to joining them. I feel awkward the first time I work out with new people...especially guys. My Mom was herself and brought me up to be proper and ladylike. She never worked out, so I think that's where that comes from for me.
Hope everyone's having a wonderful holiday weekend! Hammer Jammer, I'm loving your workout status posts and it's motivating me to see you killing it! I've got a 6 mile hike tomorrow with my Exercise Science instructors, who are absolute beasts so I hope I can keep up hahah
