What a difference a day makes!!! OMG!
Today was a day like no other. Yesterday I was about to tell them to take their hikes and do something not so pleasant with them. And why not?? Their hikes were doing some pretty unpleasant things to me!!! But today it was AMAZING for each of us!!!
Janette's hike was a last minute change made by the guides and it was incredible. The views were breath taking from the rim of the Collisium trail.
Julie's hike was pretty awesome going up through Fern Valley
My hike started out by climbing up Saddle to see some goregous views and then went down the back side to Fern Valley where I ran into Julie and her group.
In stead of going on and on about these hikes, we will let the pictures do the talking. Although, these pictures do not do justice to the in person experience.
And as for the rest of the day it was just awesome. Every class was fun and all our body parts felt good. From Zumba, to playing volley ball in the pool, today was a complete 180 from yesterday and it taught us that one bad day is just that... ONE bad day! So don't let it stop you from getting back in the game tomorrow!
So here is the summary of the day:
6:00 - Yoga (that's right we made it all five days to the OPTIONAL 6am class)
7:00 - Breakfast: Eggs, Sausage and Pancakes
8:00 - AMAZING Hikes
11:15 - H2O Intervals (Julie did this) Cardio Intervals (Janette and I did this)
12:25 - Lunch: Mushroom Soup and Chicken Tostada
1:15 - Lecture: Prep for Next Week - Everyone shared their take away for this week..
Janette's take away is that this is the first time she put her self first and did something completely for herself.
Julie's take away was she discovered she is a runner. She ran the entire lenght back from the Stop Sign hike a distance of 4.3 miles.
My take away was that I need to forgive myself. I need to not be so critical when I make mistakes.
2:30 - Zumba (So fun even tho I looked like a complete fool - see forgiveness)
3:30 - Liquid Moves (Translation- Volley Ball in the Pool)
4:30 - Circuit Training (Janette chose to stay in the pool for a second round of volley ball)
5:45 - Dinner: Lasagna and Dessert Fruit Drizzled with Chocolate
Today was nothing short of an Over Night Transformation on many levels and as fun as it has been we are all completely exhausted yet totally satisfied.
Good night all! And remember tomorrow is a brand new day, get out there and enjoy it!
Brought my running clothes with me to work and planning to change out before I leave so I have no excuses why I can't stop on the way home! Oh, and the little nagging thought that we only have 11 weeks until we run Big Sur!!! <3
