Super tired today! Just told the hubby that I am skipping dinner tonight, hitting the shower and going to bed when I get home! Well, I will do a couple of loads of laundry too......ran a couple of miles with Master Schneider, did pal gwe forms, wang ho forms and nai bi gin forms. Will see what else I can get in through the rest of the day.
Kids did great again today. Went to a new park, so I ran by myself to establish a route. Kids ended up waiting until back at the school to run. We worked on Stick forms while at the park. A little worried about my candidates that are out of the country this summer. Four of them. I hope they can still take advantage of the pre-cycle time! Went to a former students first MMA fight this past Saturday. He did great (Austin Munsch...for those of you who remember him) and won with a TKO in the second round. We were proud.
Very good day! Worked my crew pretty hard (and by extension, myself)! They were all doing push ups, sit ups, jumping rope by 9 am (without me telling them to) . Let them have some fun at the park and then pulled them away for some poom sae and self defense work. Only meant to work for about 20 minutes but ended up being about 40! Then we ran (walked/ran) 2 miles together around 4:15. It was tough, but now we know what we need to work on! The camper candidates had a Hyper Pro class and the Counselors stayed late and helped with family class and then took the adult class. It was blue stripe (sparring) so.......Did 3 assisted pull ups today. So hard, but I guess you have to start somewhere. The King Tiger 5K was great. Have a tradition of running it with Inst Dege, always good to...
Tomorrow is the 5K! Didn't get to run today, so looking forward to getting in a little extra tomorrow. I have only been going about 2miles a day during the week. Had some soreness today from my Top Team work out last night. Moved up to 15 lb kettle bells, so I am feeling it today. Going into the school early on Wednesdays and Fridays so that Conrad can go to Cross Fit. It is a good time for me to do some jump ropes, burpees, etc. Next week I will be doing them with my counselors and summer campers that are on the cycle..whoo Hoo!
Added in the credits that we got for going to the GoodWill games yesterday. Fun to see the numbers change, even if not by much percentage-wise. Have run 9 of the last 11 days! Short runs, but it is a start. Lost a couple of pounds too. Happy face! Worked out 4 days already this week with Master Schneider, but now she has work peeps coming in town and will have to miss a few of our scheduled work outs. Sad face!
Yesterday was only the 2nd day of summer camp and I am already exhausted! Tuesdays are our swimming days and it just wore me out. 8 am meeting with Keith, ran and worked out at the park with Master Schneider and then Top Team at 6:30. Still haven't even attempted a pull up, but I did stare at the bar for a few minutes this morning:) I keep telling myself that I need to get a little better at my push ups before I tackle my pull ups......at least I am able to get alot of poomsaes and other stuff done while hanging out with the kids and I am excited for next week when I have 2 Summer Campers and 3 Counselors that go on the cycle. It will really push me to get some more stuff done.
Color belt testing at Lake Norman. Went well! Hutchinsons tested for their High Red Belts and did great. I was very happy with the day...but did not get alot of Journey requirements done. Managed a "quick" run. Only 2 miles, but it felt like 5....got to get over my mental hatred for the running. I actually like it once I get passed the first mile or so, but forcing myself to take those first few steps.....
Very excited to start my Master's Journey! But a bit slow getting started! Easily getting in my poom saes....loving learning and practicing the Pal Gwe Poom Saes that the black belts will learn. Push ups are proving to be the most challenging! Can't wait for June 21st so that some of my summer camp black belt candidates can start doing stuff with me.
