Another Day, Another Challenge

Started the day forcing myself out the door to run my 3.2 miles....made it in 39:27.  I was a little surprised,  I thought I would be closer to 42 or 43  minutes,  but I had Inst Dege's 40:23 stuck in my head, so....thanks for the push, ma'am!

Got to the school and did some push ups, sit ups and kicks.  Wanted to do the challenge, but thought it better to wait for my other peeps so that we could do it together.  

So at about 5:00, me, Master Hartle, Jaylen, Jason and Hannah did our challenge, went great.......until I realized that we did it wrong!!!!!!  I forgot to have us do the forms....so we did 4 rounds of jump ropes, air squats and pistol squats all in 5 to 7 minutes.......just enough to get good and sweaty....

Luckily, just before I posted the video, I noticed that it took Mr. Foster 10 ish minutes to do his.....WHAAAAAT? 

They were not very happy to have to do the challenge over again!  Sorry guys!  But you did great!  At least we re-did the challenge before sparring class :)
