Fitness Boot Camp
This morning, I completed week 1 of Fitness Boot Camp. Courtney, my trainer, along with 2 other trainers are taking us on, this adventure. I am having a great time. The kiddos are staying with a sweet lady from church. They really like to be with her and playing with the other kids. What a blessing!~no worries about them while I am exercising.

What a blessing!~no worries about them while I am exercising.I am learning a few things about myself:
1. I really do like to exercise.
2. I am even more competitive than I realized. Scary!

Today, we workout outdoors....it was nearly 70 degrees at 8AM! We did some hiking and strength training. It was a beautiful morning. We climbed and jogged up a mountain...it was hard...but totally worth it. At the top of the mountain...we could see for miles. It was a great reminder of the beauty of God's creation. We are so blessed...even in the midst of a crazy economic time~this morning was a great reminder of what a BIG God we serve.
Find rest, O my soul, in God alone;
my hope comes from him.
He alone is my rock and my salvation;
He alone is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress,
I will not be shaken.
Psalm 62:5-6
Have a great week-end.
I can barely wait to get back to Boot Camp, Monday AM. Crazy...I know!

Wow, Marci!!! Good for you! What an inspiration. Can't wait to hear about next week!!
I am so proud of you excercising and am so blessed to have a daughter with your faith and how you see a great God in the midst of adversity.
Wow - I am so impressed! Great job! I always like working out outside -- it seems so much more fun!

I know what you mean. In the past, when I have regularly exercised, I would become addicted to it and love it. You are so blessed to have that peace of childcare while you are working out. Glad you are having fun!
I love excercising in and of itself, I just hate getting ready to excercise! Isn't that weird, I hate squeezing into the sports bra, donning the work-out gear, and putting on my running shoes and getting them tied just right - not too tight, but tight enough! Then getting my kids all settled, and occupied so they won't bug me while I run on the treadmill - once I'm actually ready, I LOVE how I feel while exercising!
Also - Fabulous party - I wish you were MY mom!
I would have never put "boot camp" and "blessing" together in the same post, but you have even me wanting to get outside and exercise and enjoy God's creation!!
Oh how wonderful to be outside and enjoy the beauty! I am envious, but good for you! Have a great weekend! (The "1" year party was adorable!!!)
Girl, I am so impressed! Reading this post even makes me want to work out, and it is NOT my favorite thing. But I do love how you feel afterwards. Maybe I will have to check into this boot camp thing in my area. Thanks for the tip!

I think I am sore just reading this post! :) What mountain did you hike?
