Wow! 2 in a row…..the Granite Girls are finally in their Tuesday groove! We have 3 days left before we compete in the Timberman Sprint Triathlon this coming Saturday. There will be five of us competing…..all in different age groups. Tim will go off first as he is our youngest male; then Lauren; then Jay; then Bear; then me. I’m in the old lady wave which suits me just fine as they are less aggressive in the water. It’s the worst part with everyone kicking & trying to just get out of the water! It’s hard to swim straight.

Anyway, I decided to go pretty hard today and biked to boot camp with my backpack. Bear came and lead the way. He was so sweet as he kept circling back so as not to get too far ahead! The route we have to take to get off the island can be a bit challenging with traffic but we made it with 6 minutes to spare before our grueling hour of bootcamp started. The entire hour was centered around the medicine ball. Whether we were lifting it over our heads or balancing on it for a plank, it was an incredible core workout resulting in an awesome sweat!

I don’t know first hand about alot of things that go on with military families in the summer but I’m sure they sweat more than just from a physical aspect. So many uncertainties on a daily basis….just making the best of each day with what they have wherever they are based. I will continue to pray for those who keep us all safe.
