4/22/10 Got me another Challenge!

Well went to the park today adn I decided to take it easy since I
A) was still breaking in the shoes I bought
B) Have a race on Sat
C) still allowing the 2 blisters I have to heal.
SOOOOO brenda and I wnet and did our 4 miles.

Now since I have been walking at D.P (My favorite park in town) I had been noticing a group of people (same looking group each time) working out -Drills, running, squats ect. while i run. They have been led by the same person each time. I wanted to ask if he was thier personal trainer but had so much els on my plate i never asked.
Then tonight after we ran they were finished and sitting in the same area we were. When asked about the trainer one of the 2 ladies there immidiately said how wonderful the program was and what an awesome job the trainer does. (He wasnt there and mind you she just got down working her tail off so i listened to what she had to say!)

She told of why she started, when she started and some of the drills he puts them through. She said she feels great and that he really cares and takes time to call or email when you miss a session and so foruth. Well that was it i thought ok maybe i can try this for a fe mos and see how it works out....i mean what is the harm.

So I eventually talked to him (Jonathan Pena of JP Fitness). The prices are very reasonable. I have seen him with his clients for a few weeks...he seems to have a great work out program as well as a good rapport with his clients.

When I talke to him as well he was very friendly not intimidateing like some other trainers i have talked to. So after a talk with Jason we aggreed that I can try the program for 3 mos and see how i like it. YEA I am so excited.

Tomorrow it is packing and then off to Frederickburg...Sat the run...OH and I have a friend coming along after all..Brenda T. will be coming i am soooooo happy that i will not be alone! Wish us luck and say a prayer for our travels!

Till Next time
Keep Runnin,
