Kacy Fernstrom and Stupid Boot Camp!

You know THAT GIRL in school that you wanted to hate because she was pretty AND smart AND nice....I bet that was Kacy. I haven't formally met her (exchanged words in locker room while she was changing baby diaper) but she has already pissed me off. "Tracey!" you say..."you get along with just about anybody, WHAT did this girl do???" I know I know...I really DO like most everyone but not Kacy and I will tell you why so you will understand that I am being quite rational about this whole thing..... Kacy can make it through "the pit" in .19 SECONDS!!
See, I told you I had a good reason.
(For those of you who need a quick history read Hulya's and my blogs from this week. Gilles made us push a 10 lb. plate through chopped up pieces of old tires basically that are in the Rock climbing pit at Lifetime. It was not pretty, it was gruesome and damn near impossible. But not for Kacy...who did it about 4 minutes faster than Hulya and me.) Since starting training with Gilles, we have heard about his "boot camp" class several times and while Hulya has a curiosity and interest..I do not. I went to REAL boot camp and I am all set. But I have watched what they do and quite frankly I think it's stupid (translation: It's stupid because I can't do it...)
The truth is...I can't hang with those girls yet. I mean, I could but you shouldn't have to be rushed to the ER immediately following a workout, know what I mean?

But here's the deal, I am working and getting stronger and healthier and soon...I am gonna crash their little nice, pretty and FIT boot camp (because they really all are attractive, fit and very driven) and when I do, they won't need to have the crash cart standing by. With that said I may never beat Kacy and her under .19 second record in "the pit" but I can promise you that the next time it's on our training agenda...I will be cursing Kacy the whole time I am pushing that plate through rubber!

Kudos to Kacy for setting the bar (even if it IS unreasonably high).

***Disclaimer: Kacy has no idea who I am and probably no idea I am blogging about her so if you know her or ARE her...I hope you aren't offended by my outing her and her extremely impressive level of fitness.

Ha. That was quite funny. I'll tell Kacy and the rest of my Team Boot Camp to check out this blog. That said I am SO excited for this group to get to the point where boot camp is doable and enjoyable. You are close Tracey! Just gotta work on that conditioning and muclscular endurance. Keep up the good work!
