More bootcamp
Author: nasamaria
Alex became a mini-celebrity, and jokingly scolded me about putting up a pic with a beer mug in his hand (eventhough you could only see the handle).The article got Bootcamp a lot of attention, and so heaps of people showed up for the 'bring a friend' day last saturday.
Everyone brought at least one, although my 'friend' couldn't find it in him to get out of bed, so I had to leave him behind ( if you're late everyone gets punished!)
We did a team race thing - we had to race a distance, adding on heavy stuff each round. By heavy stuff i mean backpacks, sandbags, a huge water bottle, a heavy rope, stretcher piled on with sandbags and a huge tyre.
Earlier that week, Thursday, we went through lots of running, all the while carrying backpacks filled with weights. The Seals (group of people fitter than the rest) got 12kg, and with us Rangers (the less fit/ new ones) it was either 8kg or 6kg - we didn't know how heavy our bags were til the end.
That was tough, and the instructors warn us that its only gonna get worse, and this sat, the last session for this month,is going to be the worst! That same evening we have Graduation Night! Drinks, and awards! hooyah!
