Extreme Adventure Boot Camp 2010

This morning I completed Extreme Form Adventure Boot Camp. It was pretty tame compared to regular boot camp because I chose the "form" camp over the ultra-cardio camp. Better for me as I still huff and puff like I'm dying when I run for more than five minutes. We were a small group and we did our strength training slowly, concentrating on form. Learned that I was doing a lot of things wrong, and overall it was a good choice for me. We also ran a lot, but not enough to make me feel like I was going to die like Cliff usually does. Afterward we had our traditional last-day gathering at Sweet Eugenes coffee shop. Coffee's on Cliff! He asked everyone in the room to tell the group how exercise has changed their life. Amazing stories in that room from remarkably strong women who have overcome so many challenges. For me, I'm just happy that my pants are fitting better, I'm enjoying running again, and it's easy to keep up with Q on his Razor scooter. I'm slowly making new friends. I don't talk too much during class because it takes my total concentration just to make it through the hour. Made a difficult decision in 2009 and suddenly now I'm a member of the boot camp cult. Let's see where it takes me.
