I crushed the hill today!

I was inspired by last boot campmates, Kellen and Sabina. At the last hill day of the last camp session, Kellen and Sabina slowly ran to the top of the hill together without walking. At the top they had huge smiles and did a double high-five. If they can do it after one camp, then I thought I should be able to as well since I'm in my fourth session. I'm sure I could have walked it faster, but I just kept moving in a jog and made it all the way to the top without stopping or walking.

This morning there was a lot more cardio before our first attack on the hill. Roy had us doing relay style races around the small parking lot carrying a weight above our heads. I thought he wouldn't notice on the back side of the bushes, but he is like a teacher with eyes everywhere. I was just trying to reserve some energy for the "hill".

I was so surprised for a first week of camp that he had us do the hill again. For the 2nd run of the hill this morning, I just couldn't "crush it" again. But there is always next week.

  1. Hi Theresa :) I finally got to a computer and the first thing I did was to check out your blog. I really miss you guys (girls?!) and I almost feel jelous when I read about all the things you did at boot camp. Reading your stories makes me feel that I am part of it too. Well, few more days and I'll be back in the States. Looking at the bright side ... I am having a wonderful time with my family, and Nicole ... I have no words to describe ... let me just say "Nicole in Wonderland" ... just seeing the smile on her face when she is playing with dogs, cats, bunnies or seeing her run barefoot on the grass or even pebbles makes this trip priceless. We are currently in Romania ... back to Hungary on Tuesday than to USA on Thursday :) Keep up the good work at boot camp. Say hello to everyone. See you soon, Marta
