Not Your Typical Saturday

Last Saturday Kaitlin and I spent the day at the Nampa Rec Center getting in shape and having an absolute BLAST!!!

First up...Climbing

Seeing how there were only two of us climbing (one to belay and one to climb) we couldn't exactly take pictures of each other climbing the actual wall (one of us would have died!) but we got some great shots bouldering!



This is Kaitlin's mad spider woman skills at their best! Check out the intensity in that serious climbing face! (ha,ha,ha)

Hello monkey arms! I look like a total monkey at the zoo getting ready to swing from rock to rock.

Okay, I know we don't look like we are very far off the ground...because we really aren't...but it was super hard to stay on the wall and we kept being like, "Take the picture, take the picture I'm gonna fall!"
Break for lunch...Papa John's Pizza...YUM my favorite!!!
It was so much fun that we went back for more...climbing that is

So, Kaitlin and I saw this little hole in the wall and the first thing that came to mind (Kaitlin's mind) was, "let's get in it!" So, I gave her a boost and she jumped in there.

What she didn't think about was how she was going to get out. I would have run over to help her but I was laughing so hard I could barely get myself off the floor. (that's why it's so blurry...sorry)
Then we decided that we wanted to make it a little harder so we tried to climb up with our feet on one side and our arms on the other. Check out how strained my face is...it was a lot harder than I thought it would be.
So, after climbing for a good 2 hours we decided that we would make the best of our day passes by reserving a racket ball room for an hour and a half. I have no idea what we were thinking, we didn't even really know how to play racket ball so we ended up just messing around and hitting the ball off of every wall/ceiling/floor that it hit. I think we should go Pro...we definitely look the part don't you think?!?!
Maybe not...


All in all it was a day well spent. We both had so much fun and would do it again. I think we did some serious abdominal work to with all the laughing that went on.

Did you wake up the next day sore, thinking "I didn't even know I had muscles there?" ... looks like a ball!
