After being a lazy lump for too long, last year I decided to get whipped back into shape. I already shed an extra chin or two, but figured now it's time to get ripped and hot! So one day, at the bar of course, a few of us were reflecting on all the 'booze me up and get me high' times this past summer and we decided to motivate each other on our Journey to Hotness with a fitness challenge and some good ole cashola! I also finalized my trip back to the homeland of South Africa, which I have not been back to in 25 years! So knowing I will be hangin out at Durban Beach and Capetown at Christmas, I gotsta look gooood! Afterall, it will be the summertime there so I can't be wearing a parka like all of you back here ;)

Day 1

Well the gym was fun! I realized I got some major room for improvement when it comes to running that track! I hate running and running hates me.
For the squats, I only chose 5lb dumbbells because I didn't know any better since I haven't done weights in awhile. On Day 50, I'm gonna have to do a lot of squats since I have to use those damn 5lb dumbbells again!
The most memorable event for me was the plank/bridge. We all were side by side planking when all of a sudden, I noticed there was a disgusting pube on the mat right below my face. Let's just say I lasted the longest in that event because I had strong motivation to not have my face land on that pube! Then Ross realized there were a whole bunch of pubes on his mat but he didn't notice them until he was already rolling around in them! Gross.

Week 1

Well I haven't been able to do much this past week because of some minor surgery on Day 3. I'm not too worried though ... with a bit of hard work and some juice, I'm sure I'll be able to bench press these boys in no time!

Week 2

Ok, well I was kidding about the roids obviously...don't really wanna look manly. This week I have gotten back into the routine!

Week 3

Hoping to move up from Cartman status this week.
I'm not fat, I'm big boned, gad damn it.
OMG, I need that beer!

Week 4

Did a Halfway Hotness 25 workout on Thursday...I was so proud of myself that I RAN the whole 3.2 km run...that's right, no walking or stopping at all! But somehow I got the same fuckin time as Day 1! Arrrgh!!! Gotsta pick up the pace now I guess.
I also got an extra hour of working out in when we had to set our clocks back on the wknd. Well the kind of workout where I was lifting up the heavy caldron of tasty, potent brew and pouring it into my mouth! Yumm! Well that, as well as tidying up Ross' Halloween House remains, while his creepy brother followed me around and stared. Ummm, I mean Hi Terry! ;)

Week 5

Worked out a lot this week, but also drank a lot this week...god damn you scorpios....why are there so many of you!?! As your numbers increase, your mystery diminishes.
LEVEL UP! I totally looked like that at the Halloween bash!

Week 6

Started this week off with yet another Scorpio booze fest! After many shit-mixes of rye, we polished off that Texas Mickey of Canadian Club! Good times...good times.
I also started kickboxing again...intermediate level this time! It's like bootcamp, but so far so good!
Ended the week skating with the Chartwell Chargers...even shot a few pucks! Was fun, but I got a long ways to go!
Ok, booze me up and get me high!...who's in?

Week 7

Worked out everyday this week, and then drank a LOT on Saturday night at the final Scorpio Bash 2006! Consumed mostly Vodka and Irish Carbombs and also shaked my groove thang for most of the night, so really, it could have been much worse!
Tonight is the night...Day 50 of the Journey to Hotness...I'm so winning this thing and when I do, we're all just gonna drink it up anyway!
Who's interested in the mini Hotness 25? Anyone? Anyone? Ross?
