Fantastic session today! I just got back from a fantastic session at the gym. Over the holidays I am not going to my regular gym as it is more difficult to get to with the kids on school holidays. Instead I am going to the gym my husband manages; it is like a footy club gym and is in fact under the football club rooms. It is a bit grotty and some of the equipment is a bit rickety BUT I have access to the oval and no-one is ever there when I go as there are only about 25 members. This also means I can play whatever music I want at full blast which is a real bonus and makes up for the dodgy equipment.
Today I did 5 laps of the oval for warm up and then did an hour of weights followed by 45 minutes of bag work where I did rounds of either boxing or kicking or both. Ive been sick for the best part of 3 weeks with a throat infection followed by a cold so it is great to have a nice, hard session under my belt and the feeling I am back on track for the New Year. Not exactly the start to the NY I anticipated but these things happen.
It has been wonderful having the kids home for the holidays; we have gone to Emerald Lake Park a couple of times where the kids can swim and Cody can play with his remote control boat. We have also been to the electric car race track so the kids can race Cody's remote control cars. Next week I will take the kids into the city so Cody can skate at Riverslide Skate Park next to the Yarra and Chloe and I can run the tan a few times and look at the shops and have some lunch by the river. So much to do and so little time! With Cody going to high school at the end of the month I want to make the most of these holidays.
