Lunges rip me to the core…
Today’s workout camp was not one of my best performances – The workout was just too hard – the combo of the heat and weights I lifted — let’s just say it was not good. Something about doing lunges just totally gets to my core — and almost brings me to tears. It mentally wears…

Starting it off right…
Group training day – small group- 2 rounds of weight training and then a quick 2 station workout to end it. I am sore from earlier this week boot camps which makes group that much harder — it’s a good sore but it’s sore nonetheless! warmup 200m run core x2 stability ball crunches stability ball…

Call me Aunty Steph!
I went for a short run yesterday morning on the trail. I did about 2 or so miles but with the heat and humidity, it felt more like 5 or 6. I ended up walking for the last part but at least I got it in. Great workout today although it was already a hot…

It IS worth it
This heat is such an extra challenge for me. It seems to just zap any extra energy I may have – making tough workouts that much tougher. I do have to say though – I am happy I get it over with early in the morning. I can not imagine having to go in the…
