The One With the Minute and 26 Second Jog

Yes, ya'll read it right!  A grand total of a minute and 26 seconds--around the Horseshoe, in the dark (well with the lamp lights), at 11:30 at night.  It's one of my many desperate attempts at getting back into shape.  Obviously, I've got a ways way to get there seeing as I only lasted a full non-stop jog/run for a minute and 26 seconds.  In my defense, however, my shoelace came undone, so I had to stop.  Really, I believe I could have gone on a wee-bit longer.

But it's not only me who's trying to get some work-out time in.  My friends and I have all come to the conclusion that it seems that both gyms--the Strom and Blatt--have been getting more and more frequent visitors these past few weeks.  We think the fact that Spring Break is only two weeks away has really kicked in and settled in everyone's mind, so all of the guys are trying to get all buffed while all of us ladies are trying to have that bikini bod!  Unfortunately, it's not so easy to drag myself several blocks to either of the gyms.  After dealing with exams and lab along with reports and homework and such, the idea of just "lazying it up" in my comfy tee and Sofees on my bed just seems more appealing than looking like a fool trying to understand the diagrams illustrating how to use each strange-looking machine.  Really, seriously, some of those drawings are just so difficult to understand.  Thank God for my boyfriend and my best friend who both know how to manipulate their arms and legs through most of those weird contraptions and weights.  I just always feel so awkward.  It almost always feel like someone is watching and pointing their finger at me because I'm looking like "a lil dumbo".  I think I need a "Working-Out-for-Dummies" book if there is such a thing. 

Oh, my belly!  Oh, my arms!  Oh, my thighs!  Won't y'all depart from me?!?  I just want to get back in shape.  I miss how playing for my high school's tennis and soccer teams regularly every season used to keep me in shape.  Now with Chick-Fil-A and Taco Bell so easily accesible, the need for working out has just doubled itself.  Oh, dear me!

Well, guys...here's to good health for one and all.  Keep them muscles growing tight and strong!  Hit the gym, once in a while, and run around kicking a dark blue ball in the dark so you can't see it and you can keep kicking it right into a tree or monument or something.  Stay buff boys and get them bikini bods ladies!  Catch y'all later on the flipside, future Gamecocks.
