Training Session One

I have to say that I am totally motivated. It was 17 degrees outside and I could not recognize a single person when they showed up at the house this morning but what a great group. Everyone had a great attitude, was dressed for the cold and was on time and ready to go. Franky was even leading the pack when it was time to run on the second lap. One lap is 1.6 miles and really the only rule so far is that there is no walking on the down hills. Everyone made both laps without an issue so big cheers to: Tiffany, Franky, Sarah, Julie H, Lisa K, Diane, Adrienne, and Kim who were the trailblazers this morning. Some exciting news for the morning is that Diane Kelly (Julie's very motivated neighbor) has bags and mugs for the entire team so look how we are already getting cool things just for getting up and exercising. I know some folks are doing their run inside so great job there too.....as long as you do it!
An idea that came up this morning was to have a scale in the garage so you can weigh in on Monday mornings. It is like having weight watchers right here and you don't have to pay for the meeting. You can keep your own log of weight (not public) but you can force yourself to track your progress. I kind of need that sort of forcing me to weigh in thing so I am up for it. Thanks to Sarah for that idea. Also if you have some weights or yoga mat or exercise ball. Feel free to bring them for boot camp. Great job everyone and welcome to Katie Wright who is going to be on the team too!!
