That class may not have been the best idea I've ever had.
I headed to the gym to try out the Body Pump Express class before work this morning (pretty much the same as a regular Body Pump class but only 45mins long). I tried it a couple of years ago when I was a member of the Fitness First and enjoyed it then so it seemed a good stand-in workout until I get my gym induction and programme tomorrow night.
It was hard work. I really enjoyed it despite sweating like a [insert swear word here] within ten minutes of starting. Only two of us showed up so we got personal service from the instructor; there was also no escaping when it got tough! The last set of lunges pretty much kiled my legs (lunges are not fun) which would have been fine, but this evening's running club session is 28mins of running up and down a big hill in Heaton park with a five mile round trip there and back. If I can keep up with the back of Group 2 this week I'll be very surprised indeed!
Possibly not the best thing to schedule for the same day as speedwork; I'll remember that in the future...

Personal training, no escape Shaun. Conversation I listened to on radio spoke of playing the triangle in an orchestra or being a second violin where you can just hide in the crowd. Not sure that's a very good analogy!
