Day 279: Hydrate

I went boxing after over a week of not getting around to it.  We went to the Gilmore gym for a session.  I was sluggish this time.  It's embarrassing.  I was so sluggish I nearly fainted.  The trainer said I should have rested before boxing, and eating at least an hour before.  The last time I ate, was five hours before that session, and I was straight out of class. All that punching made me all woozy.

On the way home, the cab passed by Addition Hills.  I missed going through Addition Hills. I love the little shops you find by accident, and the pretty townhouses.  I've always liked townhouses.  I feel that it's just the right size, and it fits right in the city.  The townhouses in Addition Hills are somewhat how I envisioned my ideal residence.  The hilly roads make it all the more charming.

Day 264: Run, Baby, Run

So, I also started running.  There must be something wrong with my brain cells right now, because it's encouraging me to live a healthy lifestyle.  Seriously.

A friend and I decided to run on the days we don't box.  It's more to compensate for the days we don't get to workout.  I agreed.  I don't know why I did, but I did.

Day 244: An Exercise in Boxing

I have been ranting about getting some exercise done for some time and have resolved to live a less lethargic lifestyle.  Finally, after much dilly-dallying, I wounded up working out with a very unlikely sport - boxing.

Yep.  I am taking up the sport that has made Manny Pacquiao famous.  A colleague is into boxing and has been using the sport to workout for about three months now, she's been encouraging us to try it out.  We finally found a gym near where we work that can accommodate us at a very early hour.  So, off to box we went.

I find it an interesting sport.  You do something else every three minutes.  Literally.  Stretch, run, speed ball, spar, punch bag, heavy bag, jump rope, stretch, cool down.  The cool down was my favorite.  It comes with a massage.  How fantastic is that?  I ached all over, but it felt great.  I guess, I like working out more than I lead people to believe I do.  I actually like the endorphin Rush (Dean Geyer).
