tonight's workout kicked serious ass!!!
7:00 2 mile run
7:30 -8:30 spin class
i'd missed the last 2 weeks for family stuff, so i knew class would kick my ass. plus i was already hot and sweaty from my 2 mile warmup. i set up my bike and tried to mentally prepare myself for the hell that is spin class. then some tiny little twig of a girl set her bike up right next to mine. like closer than i usually set my bike up next to MH. beeyotch, what the eff is up with that? i swear to bob her waist was the size of one of my thighs. needless to say, i promptly put my shirt back on. i know, i'm such a hater.
after the warmup, the instructor says we're doing partner intervals. with MH gone this week, twiggy turns to me and asks to be my partner. effing great! the instructor then says that whoever if the youngest of the partners starts the intervals first. turns out twiggy is effing 18!!! a whole 10 years younger than me!! shit!
so yeah, as if spin wasn't bad enough i've gotta keep up with a hardbody teenager during anaerobic intervals. talk about motivation. i'm freakin' sucking wind just to show i'm not a lame old lady, and i swear to bob, someone in class farts!!! i nearly choked.
after that, we did a hill climb, then sprint intervals. fun fun. and oh yeah, someone in class farted AGAIN! lay off the frijoles before class people!!!
8:30-9:05 3 more miles
after class, i hopped back on the treadmill and went another 3 miles. the best part was i ran them at 11:20. and i wasn't even tired!! i'm thinking that luscious pork fat is my body's fuel of choice.
i'm feeling pretty much on top of the world! yay endorphins! i've eaten, showered, and my brother just called saying he's got the makings for irish car bombs and just bought the 80's edition of guitar hero. it's gonna be a long night, folks. but we both have tomorrow off! woot!

Damn, girl. I am so afraid of spin class....just doing the class alone give you "hardcore" status in my book!
What tha . . . .that is so nasty! I can't imagine being in humid sweaty filled room with other people and then having someone rip one. Does anyone even say anything? I'd probably start laughing my ass off (Maturity level of a 5 year old, I know :P)
You rock girl! Can you say .... duathlon? The fart part does sound unpleasant, but I'm with Marcy, I would have been laughing my ass off too!
ahh, your post brought a smile to my face...the good times of spinning and the post biking run...hope you had a great night and enjoy the day off.
ROFL. Seriously, spinning scares me. And if I had to breath foul air, while cycling next to the female version of Lance, well I'd probably have gotten up and left lol. So props to you for not only kicking some serious ass in spin, but then running afterwards.
Hope you enjoyed those car bombs and Guitar Hero (P.S. When did they release the 80's edition. Must go find it lol!)
Maybe twiggy was "interested" LOL!!!
Look at you! Such a good runner/spinner!
How was the 80s Guitar Hero? My husband is chomping at the bit to get it. One of our friends got it yesterday too and he gave it good reviews.
nice work!!
enjoy your day off :)
She was 18, well that explains it all...didn't we all look like that from 16-18. Ok, not all...(I sure didn't) but give her a few years, she'll be putting her shirt back on too.
I just blew water out my nose after the fart comment. You are too funny.
Who are these kids and how do they get let into our gyms? I mean, really, aren't there some rules about that somewhere :P
You rule for sticking it out...I would have probably faked an important call or something to get out of it altogether ;)
Sometimes, your posts exhaust me. 5 miles plus this spin class? Good lord, woman! I do love the "lucious pork fat" reference, though!
I am impressed that you could keep up with the 18 year old and still have energy to run.
Love the fart story
Omg you are hilarious. Great job with the run-spin-run!! That's intense. Have fun with the drinking and Guitar Hero, I'm jealous!
I am cracking up. I think the same skinny girl was in my total body conditioning class tonight. She was having trouble lifting her 3-lb. weights, and her form absolutely sucked. And then, during tricep dips, she just quit. She didn't stop for a minute to regain her breath or let her arms rest. She just quit and lay there like a slug. Byotch. Go eat a steak!
Dang, great workout! LOL about the farting in class...I hope you weren't near that person. I'm afraid that if we get the 80's version of Guitar Hero, I will never see my hubby without the guitar in his hands again. :-)
Spinning totally scares me too...I think I've made it through about 5 minutes of one class, and I'm terrifed to go back.
Girl, you rock. Run + spin + irish car bombs AND 80's guitar hero all in one night??? What a fabulous life!
