Oh hello waking up before 9am on a Saturday morning... This is new.

Today I am up nice and early so that I can get ready and go to my first Leicester ‘Bootcamp’ fitness session. I’m not quite sure what has possessed me to sign my life away… I mean sign up for this?! But maybe it will be fun? Enjoyable? Rewarding? I don’t know… I can guarantee though it’s going to be bloody freezing! Our fitness instructor Imogen Gordon-Stables of Imogym will be putting us through the paces!

I have never purposely put myself through anything like this before?! So am not quite sure what to expect… The only thing I have in mind to compare it with… Locked away at the back of my memory… Is running around the school field doing a cross-country run on a morning that was so cold your legs took on that mottled, marbley effect… Nice! Or perhaps it’ll be like doing the 'Bleep-Test’? That always used to strike fear in my heart.

Oh Well.

As long as there are no step-aerobic 'you-really-need-coordination-to-do-this-exercise’ kind of tasks… I might be ok.

Also… I am not a big fan of tennis. Mainly due to the fact that when I was in highschool, mottled, skinny legs, bad hair-do and all… I was attempting to play a game of tennis with the other girls - when my passing teacher - realising how bad my hand-to-eye coordination really was… plucked me off the tennis courts and proceeded to tell me to play by myself against the wall.

What?!?

No wonder I have an aversion to Wimbledon. Just give me the strawberries and cream.

But anyway… This is what I have signed up for
