Killing myself laughing

J, ds9 has just got up and I said to him that I was going to do some of my exercise dvd and have a go at doing some skipping. I said I wanted to do at least 20 skips without stopping and he said, "Are you sure about that? You're kinda old mum to do 20 so why don't you do 10 instead!!!"

Killed myself laughing. I'm only 28 (not 29 for another 3 months!!) I am not old. So to prove him wrong I tried to do 20 skips. My first attempt was 3. 2nd attempt 5. 3rd Attempt 10. 4th attempt 12 skips. I was knackered then so sat down for a minute. 5th and final attempt was 15 skips and it killed me.

J said "I warned you that you wouldn't be able to do 20 skips. You're too old. But well done for getting 15!"

Then he proceeded to show me how it was done and did 20 skips easily!

So my exercise target for today that I have set myself is to try and do 20 skips. I am determined that by the end of the day I will do it and skipping is excellent cardiovascular exercise.
