I'm sitting on the couch in my living room and I can barely find the energy to blink. I am completely to blame for the amount of exhaustion I am facing today. With the Lakers playing in Game 7 of the NBA finals and it being against the Boston Celtics, my sleep was the certain price I was willing to pay.
I had it in my mind that boot camp was going to be a bit easier today because it was Friday. But I forgot...this is boot camp. We don't have easy days. "Easy" is not exactly in the vocab for boot camp. So today, we (as in the drill sergeant leaders who claim this is going to be worth it in the end) ran around Holmes Lake, a whole 2.5 miles of a workout. Normally I walk and run that when I work out, but I DON'T normally stop to do pushups, plyos and calisthenics.
I don't mind running. In fact, I have developed a little bit of a taste for it. But my taste for it is tested when I am thrown into the buffet of boot camp. With the running and lack of sleep, I am read for a nap and MORE than willing to stare at the back of my eyelids for a minute or twenty...
But I am happy to say that I have made it through the first full week of boot camp. I can hardly wait to see what next week holds for me....(that's the lack of sleep talking, pay no attention to it..)
