FITNESS TUESDAY
Surprisingly, today we had choice for fitness and the choices were: running laps around Gold Stone Park, Yoga in the small gym and pyramid (series of exercises) in the large gym. 3/4 of all the classes COMBINED went to do yoga... Some did the pyramid and some went for the lap run which I also did. Surprisingly, the majority going for the lap run were Grade 8's and a couple of 10's. So I tried to lead by running most of the time ( stopped to take breathers) and hoping to make them work harder. And MR. Vahn also did the same. I wasn't that tired while running but I had to take breathers. In the end, I think I did about 6-7 laps and overall good exercise,

You had to take breathers because your cardiovascular system WAS tired. Your muscles may have been feeling okay but your lungs/heart's ability to take oxygen from the air and put it into your muscles isn't doing enough while you run so you need a breather. The way to improve this system is long slow activities (running, biking) and building your ability through the interval style we did in groups. Keep working on it (once or twice a week for 45 min) and you will see improvements.
