WOO HOO! 3 pounds down and only 10 more to go to be at my first goal and baby-making weight. This week was awesome. Even though boot camp was not in session this week, we had a make-up night on Monday where I kicked my own butt. Tuesday morning I did my regular kickboxing class but I went all out and was drenched in sweat when I got home. Wednesday and Thursday I took kickboxing classes at the gym to keep my endurance up for the mud-run on Saturday. My goal was to finish the 5K mud-run in under 40 minutes. I didn't know what to expect for the race but I just didn't want to be the last to finish. As it turns out, I came in 45th place which sounds high but there were over 300 runners. Also my time was 39:19. I ran through dirt, climbed walls, crawled through mud puddles, climbed over tire tubes and leaped over foam squares. In the end, I was muddy and wet but I was not dead and I finished with both my goals met. It is amazing how far I have come from when I started this journey. John and my mom were there cheering me on and it felt good to be proud of what I did. John said I kicked ass and I love that he is my #1 supporter. My told me she was so proud of me and that she was impressed at how well I did. I am one lucky lady for sure!
