Tough Friday Workout
It's winter, the temps are cold and the streets are slushy. So, getting around from studio to studio hasn't been appealing. Thus, I've focused on my rides at RTZ. It's so comfortable and familar until you get on those bikes. The leaders have really rocked the new moves this week. I took Steven's 9:30 this morning and I'm wiped.

Ride the Zone and Wii Fit
Carrie's class at the Ride the Zone was full of new advanced moves! She led us to do pump our arms behind us while climbing up the hill...80 reps right and left. Ouch. We also did pushups on the sprint...3 sets of 20. And the killer was oblique pulses on an additional switch back with both arms on the handle
bars. Wow! Carrie was on fire today.

God is our DJ and life is our dance floor
Marion was out of town this weekend and she came back for the 6:30pm class. I met her before class to hang out in the studio and we were just chatting about our weekends and stuff. Class began snd she rocked us out with the lights off...completely dark. Talk about falling into your own space...then I caught a huge vibe from her when she played god is our DJ and Life is our dance floor.

Grace Outreach: share the love #2
A charity organization that is dear to me is Grace Outeach(www.graceoutreachbronx.org). We are young but our results have been overwhelming. The program's initial initative was to reach out to women that did not complete high school for one reason or another and provide the pportunity to receive one to one preparations to take the GED. This is how we started five years ago...

Small Steps Make Big Changes Down the Road
Holly taught a fantastic ride today with many challenging intervals and inspiring words. At the end zone, she reminded us that the end zone was not the cool down, and even though it is only five minutes-it's those small amounts of time that accumulate into big changes.

RTZ is a BUZZ about SW!!
So Marion gave SW a shout out yesterday and people listened. When I was checking in for my 9:30 class the girls behind the desk were on the site, people mentioned they loved the photos and Marion's interview. Some of them were surprised that I'm blogging rides and experiences at Ride The Zone. I suggested that the blog, as well.
