I was wrung out for an hour after this morning's session, as in hands trembling, sweat still trickling down my back even after a shower, etc. It was the running intervals on the treadmill that killed me. Well, plus the lunges they were interspersed with. Oh, man.

I like this kid. He's funny and he pushes me without ever it feeling like I'm being pushed.

I register sustained agreement. It'll run to a lot of tea to maintain him, but it'll be worth it.

Thanks for recommending the gym to me. It's worked out well.

Meh - I wouldn't start worrying unless he suggests you do a one-armed handstand!

Giggly hugs,
