I joined a Fitness Club!

I joined a gym! Impulsive, perhaps...and it is not cheap, but GOD if you could see this place it is state of the art! I have a complex about working out and gyms...I have no motivation to go when it is free (lol) and I dont like swarms of people or loud people! This place is, in a word, fancy.

It has an amazingly warm indoor pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and in the summer they open the outdoor pool on the roof! (I was looking for a place w/a pool and they are so close to home!) They have weight room, cardio room, cycling room and treadmills complete with a TV attached to each one! They have classes you can go to that are no extra charge, like cycling, boxing, pilates, yoga, etc. They have a beautiful locker room and showers! Everything is complementary: the soaps, the shampoo, the towels, the magazines! I am so excited!!!!

If nothing else, when I went today for my first swim, I noticed I am out of shape. Oh, what I use to be able to do in high school! I need to get into shape again, for my health. Additionally, I may be in a triathlon with Melz (doing the swimming part) this summer and I need to start training. No one seems to believe me or believe I can do it...now that is motivation enough!

I BEG TO DIFFER!!!!!!! you can totally do it cuz you are awesome! <3 also, if you want to get into more shape you can run in the father's day race with me that i mentioned way back... and i totally hear ya on the not being able to do what you did in high school! mid march I decided to start running and marc was like lets go to the track so i thought ok cool... and so then i decided i'm going to run a mile and time myself and that made me realize that I need to run more because i did it in 10 minutes which is totally embarrassing! So once classes finish i'm running all the time so i can get into shape to run a 3 mile course! Also, in a triathlon don't you have to run, bike and swim altogether? if you only do the swimming part then it isn't really a triathlon silly :P

Also, i can't wait til may when we go out!!! its going to be such an awesome night, i will have just finished finals, its marcie's bday celebration and I get to see you too! and i don't have to drive so i can drink as much as i want! yay! Shall we have a repeat of new year's!? except not in another country?

Also, i think i totally get first place for most frequent commentor on your blog as well as person who leaves the longest comment ever! Maybe I should've emailed? heheeee *hugs*
