Just a WALK in the park!

4 weeks down and time to step it up just a little bit. 6 am meet at the gym, camelbacks on and off we go. The guys thought I was going to head to Sleath St for some hill work (as if I would be so cruel) but no we head towards the point. Darrens watch is set on 1min and 3 min intervals so as the first beep sounds I break the news to them that we are jogging for a minute. Annette once again slays me with her look and says that running is not her thing (well sorry Annette but it is today :-).
We reach Santagiulina Way and a little pit stop to pop a couple of weight bags into Gregs backpack (sorry Foxy it was only 2.2kg not 7kg - maybe next time).
From here we continue our pattern of 1 min jog but the jog is now followed by the addition of 1min of selected exercises eg: lunges, squats, push ups, v-holds, hill runs etc etc. followed by 2 min walk and repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat for 2 and a half hours, got pretty warm by the finish but once again both of our "lucky winners" battled on and showed their fine spirit and determination to make it back to the gym hot and sweaty.
I so enjoy those couple of hours of insults and look forward to each week to come. Gregs nice comments and sucking up paid off hey Greg no wonder Annette has told him to keep his mouth shut in future - I doubt it, he can't help himself so get ready for next week Nettie.
Darren helped out by completing the exercises too and as usual had his camera handy (some pictures have been posted on facebook - the link is at the bottom of body4u blog page). I'd watch out Daz we may have to get that camera surgically removed from a not too pleasant orifice if Annette gets hold of it and you at the same time!!
Weigh ins were conducted again this morning and both guys had another loss, just shy of a kilo for each of them so slowly but surely it continues.
I must sign off now to go and work out the next 4 weekend adventures to come - hahahahahahah.
LOL Little Miss Scary
