Weekends

Well waking up on a Saturday and I don't have to run out the door to get to a wrestling tournament. That is a good feeling. Suppose to meet with my running group at 7 but rain and sleet is saying to stay inside. Trying to get over a cold and I don't think that cold rain and wind is the best for me. Guilty yes I really enjoy the head guy of the run group. He also teaches a core class at my gym. He is 72 and works us out. He has inspired me to continue on running more. We will even be meeting more on the week days when our schedules work out. He is more busy than me.

Any who, I have signed up for 8 free sessions with a student personal trainer. We have just completed week one. We meet 2 x a week and he runs me through various free weight exercises. Working on metabolism and core stuff. In my fitness test, he did say I was above average. That is good but we already knew that. Didn't we? I made the mistake in telling him that my arms where not sore at all after first session. Guess what they are today. It feels good to feel that soreness. Running is a no brain er. Weights are a different story. I know now why the rich and famous have a trainers. You really don' t have to think about it, just do it. Not sure if I will remember all the weights and exercises he is teaching. I told him I want him to make me up a program. Going to make some bets along the way so I can get a few more trainings out of him before he goes. Hoping to get the most out of free information.

Well back to my free Saturday. Casey and I are going shopping. It seems that she has a gift card burning a hole. Maybe I can convince her to hit the gym first. Can't hurt to ask.
