Summer Fitness!

I’m gearing up for the 39th annual 10 mile Blessing of the Fleet Race to take place in Narragansett, RI.  I’ll be one of the 3,000+ runners / walkers to compete in the event.  I can’t wait!  I guess this humid weather is preparing me for the possible conditions of the race.  Luckily it is run partially right next to the water! Beautiful views!!

I’m also looking forward to a possible weekend getaway to Maine with the family and the 3rd annual ZUMBA Convention in Orlando, FL!!! I hope to come back SUPER ZUMBA CHARGED!!!

Mark your calender: Sunday May 16th Heart Walk – stretch with me!!!

I’m gearing up to participate in the 2010 American Heart Association’s Heart Walk. Get there at 8am…stretch with me at 9am.  It’s a great cause and it will be fun too!!!   I’m going to lead the stretch for about 3,000 people!   I’m putting the word out that I need help!  Anyone interested in helping me stretch out participants please step right up!!!!

It won’t be hard…I’ll lead it …you guys follow and guide the walkers through the paces. There will only be a podium…maybe I can be up there and my “helpers”  will be among the crowd with their orange Fitness Studio T-shirt that  I will provide for you!!!!  I hope to do a little Zumba to get the blood circulating and then stretch…I was told to make it any length up to 10 min.   I plan on taking about 5 min.

Any input would be appreciated…I’m planning the warm up now ….!!!!   We’ll be team Fitness Studio and I hope to raise a bit of money for the AHA too!  There’s no charge to take part in the walk but as team captain representing The Fitness Studio I’m expected to raise some funds for the Heart Assoc….so if you can help me out in any way let me know!   Thanks : ) (Let’s help save lives by funding research for cardiovascular disease, have some fun and support the AHA!!!)

Welcome to Nancy’s blog

I had FUN today….I  taught my usual 2 Zumba classes.  I enjoyed doing some new songs.  Bor0 Boro a Bollywood, Bellydance, Ritmo Caliente a Quebradita and 5 Letras a Reggaeton rythm.

I think the barometer rose to 50 something today!  I went running in the afternoon around Roger Williams Park.  There were a lot of other runners out.  I saw 2 men walking their babies in strollers…where were the moms?…they probably needed a break!  I’m looking forward to green leaves on trees…not much going on up on the bare branches….speaking of green…I hope I’m not the only one wearing a strange green get up on March 15th for my special (early) St. Patrick’s Day Zumba 5:30-6:30pm class.  There will be prizes for the most glorious green outfits!!!  I hope to see you all there at my studio!!!!
