Week 2 - Day 12

Hey Everyone! I just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate all of you guys reading my blog and commenting!!! I look forward to reading the comments every night!!

Anyway, I woke up today at 6:30 like usual. Today's hike was called Slots. I went with the medium intermediate group like usual. We took off hiking like usual. Well, we get to one of the slots and people start to go in it. Well, I'd already been in so I stayed outside. Well, the fast intermediate group took off walking and the lovely guide Sandy, says, "Well Bets, go join them!" I was like, "uhhhh, I don't think so" So Sandy assures me that my group will be coming along soon so just take off with fast group. So I follow them and actually can keep up with them!!!! So Deb came from the front to the back and joined me which made me really happy! I love her so much!!! So she hiked with me for a while. Well, by this time, I am absolutely dying. We get to a stopping place and Paige tells everyone that if they need a break, they can hang back and join the slower group! I'm thinkin, "Thank GOD!!! I cannot keep up with these people." So, I sit down and good ol Deb comes up and makes me keep going!!! Uggghhh! We get to the birth canal. It this area between the rocks that is very very small. I'm talking so small you can barely walk through. You have to slide on your ass in some parts, jump down a 5 foot drop, crawl on your hands and knees, rock climb, etc. I mean, it's crazy! But, man, once you get through it, the view is absolutely amazing!!! So, then, to get back through you have to do everything again. Oh God, I thought I was dying. Anyway, so after the birth canal, we get going again. We join up with the medium intermediate group and I joined them. The fast intermediate was kickin my ass! So, all in all, the hike was awesome! I did a lot better than I thought. I actually kept up with the fast intermediate for a while!!! After the hike, I was miserable. I was so sweaty and then your sweaty clothes get cold from the weather and it's miserable. SO, I was so tired from the hike and cold and miserable, I got to my room and layed down. We cranked the heat to 85, and i had 3 blankets on and could not get warm! i was miserable!

Lunch today was carrot soup which sucked and a tostata. The tostata was pretty good!! Just a little modification and it'd be great. I plan on making them when I get home. So this afternoon was Circuit training and hip hop. I skipped the hip hop and did double circuit training. I did skip gentle stretch because I wanted to shower before dinner. I went to dinner and they had stuffed peppers. Well, I didn't want a stuffed pepper so I asked for a boca burger. I am falling in love with them!!! I am definitely eating them when I get home. It had a lil bit of barbeque sauce on it. AND, corn on the cob!!! I was so excited!! Dinner was awesome! We also had our weekly slideshow which is always fun! After dinner, I went to the lobby and Cody talked me into buying these sweet new shoes!!!! They're trail runners and great for hiking! I'm so excited! I was going to wait until I had a bad day to buy them but Cody said they only had one left in my size! So, I just had to buy them! After that, I came back to my room and I'm watching Baby Mama. I'm bored as hell and it's a Friday night!! I want a beer so bad I can't take it!!!
