Kickboxing?

I think I would like to throw kickboxing into my training. It should count-I ran and bounced around a lot. Not only that, but it's just as boring as running and I'm just as uncoordinated during it. The class also lasted longer than I ever have out on the road: one hour. Maybe if I had someone running next to me, yelling at me to go faster, change directions, and move my arms, I'd run better. It actually amuses me to imagine this because I know the only outcome would be me punching that person in the face. It really doesn't please me to be told what to do, especially if it's something I don't want to do.

I rode my bike 2 miles today as well. My cousin lives a mile away and she has a pool; so after kickboxing, I rode my bike over there and hung out by and in the pool. A bathing suit tan is a whole lot sexier than an Ipod armband tan. Although, the armband tan does make me feel kind of cool: "Yeah, I went for a run today-what did you do?!"
