Bootcamp Torture and Other Updates...

I've been a bit lax about updates lately, and for that, I apologize.

For starters - my big news is that at last Saturday's Group Training Session (aka GTS) I walked 4 miles in just under an hour. That's less than 15 minutes per mile! Go me!!!

Next up - I'm now up to $1,491.00 in donations!!! Thank you all for your generosity and support of my efforts!

At this past Wednesday's GTS, we had the pleasure of a bootcamp workout. Actually, it was more like a Group Torture Session than a Group Training Session, and I'm really surprised that I was able to move when I woke up on Thursday! If you want to get an idea of what Jasmine Graham put us through, have a look at her web site here:

Tomorrow, we're scheduled to do 5-6 miles in Central Park, which means by the time I get home, I'll probably have logged about 9 miles on my pedometer when all is said and done. We also have a team brunch after our training session, which I'm looking forward to.

On the fund raising front, I am hosting an online Tastefully Simple party. Now through the end of the month, you can order delicious Tastefully Simple foods for yourself or for holiday gifts and the consultant has generously offered to donate 20% of the total sales to my Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Team in Training efforts! If you would like to be added to the invite list, please e-mail me with "TNT Tastefully Simple" in the subject line, and I'll send you an invitation with the link!
