Today's session was led by a brick wall of a man named Dave. He's a Marine, and I'd be surprised if it'd take less than a tank to knock him down. That being said, he was a stellar bloke and the session was really fun for the entire hour (and when I say entire hour on this blog, I mean literally. There is no stopping -- when you're not doing something specific you're jogging on the spot).
We did the requisite jogging, we did some team exercises where we had to pair up, get into groups of two, three, four - anyone left out (there was an odd number) at the end had to do a few squats or push ups. We also did a game involving a football. If Dave said 'header', you had to catch the ball and vice-versa, or two burpees/squats/press-ups for everyone. Despite the burn, and the lung busting running exercises, there was a smile on my face for most of the time I was there, it was a great session.
Now no disrespect to Paul, but Dave really made it fun. He made us laugh, he got us all working together, he made jokes, he was a great guy. Really enjoyable session. Afterwards I met up with Mark, a friend who introduced me to BMF, and is the one answering all of my crazy TA related questions. He'd just done a green bib session, and we went in the Mac centre in the park and had a coffee and a long chat about the TA and whatnot. It was a nice change, a great little afternoon.
There was a BMF Social tonight at the Actress and Bishop pub, but I already had plans and wasn't able to go, but I believe a good time has been had by all.
My next session isn't until Thursday, then after that it'll be Saturday -- rinse and repeat until I can finally add Monday in, and not have such a long gap between sessions.
I ache now, and tomorrow well... God help me. But for now? I'm okay, just sleepy.
