Today was really fun! The rain didn't stop us from getting a good workout but the flu that is going around is keeping people away! We had a smaller group but I think it all worked out in the end.

That first pyramid set kicked my ass. I lost count on a few of them and ended up doing more than what was needed but a little extra never hurt my fat booty, rofl

The relay race was fun and both teams ended with a tie so we all jumped for joy. Of course, it would start sprinkling and then raining during my turn to go but I made it through with no injuries!

That dice game. I am an avid gamer and I really hate rolling ones but let me tell you, with this game, I want all the one's!! I continued to roll 6's the entire 3 rounds of that game and it was bad. The other team won, but I think we might have been the real winners since we got more of an exercise!

The fire hydrants and the donkey kicks ended up hurting my knees since we were on the solid ground but nothing that I wasn't able to shake off and I am feeling fine now. On my knees, lol, I am so sore everywhere else!

I was really happy that we were able to have class today, even with the rain. At least we now have a good covered location in case the weather turns bad and we don't have an indoor space.
