  • Workout

    One of the drawbacks of working with a single person business is that if he oversleeps – well we are all left to sit and wait, which is what happened this morning. One of the ladies actually had to drive to our trainers house to wake him. We need our bootcamp.  So while we were…

  • Work it out.

    A beautiful morning full of sun and that makes for great workout weather. The picture to the left is from my front yard – it’s clematis. What makes this picture really special – Scotty took it this morning and sent it to me and said: have a good day! He’s so darn sweet. Warmup 400m…

  • Back at it again

    Finally a Monday workout outside! It was hot, humid and we all worked up a good sweat. My ankle has been bothering me so I did modify a few exercises. It seems I can put weight on my ankle no problem but when I do any movement that flexes it – that’s the problem. I…
