vegas!!!!! carla, bonnie, sandy, tink, JM and me at pumpkinman!

ok, so I participated in this local fitness challenge. basically you had one minute for each station to do as many reps as you could. for the pullups, they were done on a gravitron and they gave women half of your body weight as a counterweight, other wise, all exercises were body weight. and let me preface my results by saying that everyone's form today sucked, including mine. so I don't want you to think I got this many squats atg or pushups that were chest to floor. but still, my results were good for second place in my age group and the chick who beat me was all of 115 probably, and had defined abs, so VERY low body fat.

pushups 52

situps 43

pull ups 25

squats 65

jump rope 70

mountain climbers 127

shuttle run 37

I owe a lot of this performance to the recent 10 pound fat drop. I can't tell you how much easier this stuff is in a leaner body. and I have to thank tom for challenging me to consider just getting it done, and leigh for providing some templates on how to do that, and my girls, jane, ginger, tina, and jill for providing unbelievable support.I have to say, I am totally on a mission to reach my potential as a athlete. I have allowed myself so many excuses in the past, and I am really done with that phase of my life. feeling this fit is the best!

and I did this all in my new lucy workout clothes (not the sandals, lol. had my nike runners on!)

yummy italian frittata--it has spinach, and roasted roma tomatoes, roasted red and yellow peppers, ricotta salada cheese and a bit of parmesan. lots of italian spice and fresh basil. it was so good!
