Tri

Fridays, here at fat camp, are the big end of the week - celebrated by having  a triathlon in the gym.   Run the treadmill, bike on the recumbent, swim in the pool. They have some variation but you spend about two hours completing your race.

I was excited about today's event for two reasons.
1 - it is my fav thing here as it is an all out cardio class which is my favorite thing
2 - I really wanted to test my knee to see if I could run two miles straight

My knee wasn't in the best shape to begin with but I went straight to the treadmill. Each step was like a stab to the knee but the tear must have moved around because eventually I was running pretty much pain free.

I am so proud of myself. I did the two miles. It was EXTREMELY slow but I didn't stop. I kept going through the pain and really gave a good effort.

The biking was no problem.

Due to all the rain, the pool was freezing! I almost gave up on it but I just plunged through and finished.

Next goal?????  Run the Tan without stopping???
