Playing catch up

Hello all!  It's been a while since I've posted anything, but I promise I've worked out since then!  I wasn't running though - sadly enough.  After that stupid Hustle class, the very bottom of my shins/ankle area stated hurting like crazy!  I took a day off to rest them, and then started walking on the treadmill to warm up, went to start a sprint, and promptly almost collapsed on the treadmill from the pain of it.  So I switched to the elliptical to still at least engage my glutes and did the rope and tire exercises from the trainer.  While I was in the gym, I did manage do do a few set of sprints, so that's good.  Maybe they just needed to warm up a bit... 

Funny story - while I was doing my first circuit in the gym, I was alone (very unusual) and pretty happy about it.  After a while, one guy came in to play basketball, but I ignored him and kept on going.  At one point while I was on the ropes, I was seriously getting tired, and I hear this, "You can do it!!  Keep going, you can do it!!"  I look around and the basketball guy was definitely watching me workout and I guess he really wanted me to finish that set :)  I thought it was pretty funny, but i guess you have to be there!

I didn't do anything over the weekend, but we had the Yule log, so I guess that counts as hiking.... right?  Kate and Drew both bailed this year - Drew because he was hungover and Kathryn because she's all upset about stupid Paul....  I have never met this guys but I do not like him one bit.  He needs to telll Kate is he's interested in dating or not - because I think she thinks they're dating, he thinks they're "hanging out" and I don't think he has any interest in moving beyond that.  *Sigh*....

So girls, we're T-2 weeks!  I'm pretty nervous, and I know I'm going to be super slow on this, if only because of my back, but no matter what, even if I"m walking alot - I am going to finish!

I hope you're hearing the Eye of the Tiger in the background, because I sure am ;)
