I am 3 weeks into my Kaia FIT boot camp - I am seeing a big difference in my body and feeling so much stronger. I am wiped out each night - especially if I do a double! Yes that's right two classes in one day. Today we went back and did a class from the first week - it felt harder. I don't know if I am tired or just my body is feeling all the work its been doing.
Now I have been home for a bit and my energy level is up! Much better than yesterday - I was so fatigued and had no drive at all! I am looking forward to going in to my craft room and getting some real play time in today. I may even enjoy the the pool.
Later today, Mike and I have a mate date to go to the Botanical Gardens for a food and wine tasting. Yum, can't wait!
So, I need to find some new goal...once boot camp is over, I don't have any races or athletic commitments. I am going to enter the Nike lottery with a friend, but there is no guarantee with that, and the race is in October. Also I am planning on getting volunteer spot for IMAZ - but there is no running there! Any suggestions? I need some local races and maybe a few tris.
What are some of the San Diego favorites? I would love to hear what people like and why.

Moving slow this morning!
Good morning! Well I survived another "double" Kaia FIT session yesterday! The first at 7am and the second at 6:45pm. Got home and took a nice hot, long shower, but it still took me a while to wind down. I slept like the dead! I am still moving very slow this morning and am procrastinating by playing on the Internet! :) I need to get on it and get my workout in! But, there is still coffee in my cup, so it will have to wait just a bit more!
I think, I am going to get on my bike and see where it takes me...may not be far as it is on the trainer, so a spin session is probably what it will be! Thanks to Spnervals, it won't be an easy one! I have a nice little collection of their DVD's but there is just one more I want...the IMAZ course DVD. That's on my wish list!
Thankfully today is the last day of our "Game On" diet. I am ready for a break. It has been nice to loose some weight, but I am looking forward to eating a slightly more diverse selection of food! Some of this is my own doing because there are a few "easy" foods that are my go to foods on this diet, and I have eaten allot of them! Others, just are not on the approved list! I have been craving popcorn with homemade butter and fresh parm cheese! Oh the yummieness!! One more day!

UGH!
I just don't know what happened, gained 3 lbs over night! Yes I did have my diet day off and I ate some yummy things, but 3lbs! UHG! So, I guess that I can never eat off plan again! Lucky me!
That's ok, I will have it all off by the end of our game on Wednesday!
Today, I am looking forward to just relaxing a bit more and finishing up the little project I started yesterday -transforming 2 ugly old mirrored sconces to a beautiful bronzed look. We shall see what happens. I say this so you know that I am giving my body a nice day off from working out! It deserves it! REALLY! :)
Yesterday I tracked 2 friends as they made their second Ironman race in Texas. For one of them, this wasn't his race, and he had to call it during the bike. This is a reality that I need to be ok with mentally, as not every race will be a great one! (I know this from my recent Safiri PArk -super bad race, just no energy.) However, his wife, made a great finish and is now a 2 time Ironman! It is so inspiring watching that!

YAY ME! I am finally back to training! Its been so great - I signed up for a Kaia FIT 6 week boot camp. I am loving it. I have never really worked my core or upper body the way they are working. I am already felling stronger and healthier. I have also been playing the Game On Diet with Mike and some friends. So far I am down about 8 pounds! I really see the finish line of IMAZ getting to be a reality.
I need to get back into the pool and on the bike. This week is looking good for that! The weather has been so great here I can't wait to start enjoying summer!
