Dipping My Toes in the Blog Waters

I know I've been gone for a bit, and my sister is relentless in her desire for more blog posts. I think it's mostly because she's told some friends about my super cool blog and then I flaked out. Yeah, really super cool, huh?

Anywho, I found out something interesting at my boot camp class this morning (you know, the class I wrote about before that crushes my will to live every Tuesday and Thursday from 7-8 am?). So I struggle with shuttle runs. You may recall those as the sprints we all did in elementary school where you run to the free throw line and back, run to the middle line and back, etc. Usually the boys run while the girls rest and vice versa. This morning there was an odd number, so Joe (the classes personal trainer that rivals only Satan in his cruelness) put me with the boys. I know these results aren't scientific by any means, but I cut 6 seconds off my time. I know that I'm less competitive with women, but I'm shocked to think that I'm just that competitive with men.

You might say, "Well Carolyn, geez, I would hope you're improving each class.". But listen here friend, I cut 6 seconds off from THE BEGINNING OF CLASS THIS MORNING...after running, jumping, planking, etc...my last shuttle run of the CLASS had the best time.

Ok, I'm amending my earlier statement...my data is TOTALLY scientific!
