Over ... & out! I have come to the end of the "official" boot camp ... I am in deep, deep, dark, dark pain ...
I am actually here until Sunday ... so tomorrow I will do some soft exercise ... but nothing too strenuous ... that may change if I get the urge.
So - awake rather early (again) but this time we headed out for a trot around Champneys. The resort is set in 170 acres of countryside ... so there is a GREAT deal of space here!
After a breakfast of smoke salmon bagels (yum) we played some outdoor games before some underwater exercise ...
Lunch was a king prawn Thai curry ... I didn't like it at all ... bleugh!
Then we went on a "Powerwalk".
There are - I think - five main reasons why people do a Fit Camp at this time of year:
1) Those who a relatively fit who need a bit of motivation - something different to add to their fitness regime
2) Those who want to lose a couple of pounds after the Xmas indulgence
3) Those who really want to start getting fit - health, age or overweight
4) Those who have a goal
5) Those who need to change their lives
I am Number 4 ... with a bit of 5 and 3 thrown in there for good measure. With the NY Marathon in November looming ... I need to get with the program ... and this afternoon I managed a 3-mile trot in just over 30 minutes ... this has given me a lot of a positivity! I can do it - I will do it ...
The day did end with a massage ... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
