Dunedin RPM - 54321

So, I went to Dunedin RPM class - both Sunday and Monday night - same instructor both nights - Kelly.

First night, Kelly spots "new blood" and tells the lady in the red t shirt (that's me) to turn my dial up.  wtf?  I thought.  Its hard when you are on unfamilar machines to know where the dial is.  It wasn't like I was going deliberately "soft".  Eeek, and then she had me "on surveillance" for the whole class.  Well, it felt like that.

Second night, I wore a green t-shirt and changed seat.  Did it fool her?  No!  It's a kind of difficult to be invisible when you are my size, but I guess new blood is new blood, no matter what size you are?

Music set was the same both nights.  The release with Adam Lambert in.  Anyway, it felt good to get a bit of rpm in and if you are in Dunedin, I think Kelly is a v.good instructor.
Good instructor, but she looked "too pretty" at the end of each session to be a Wgtn Terrace instructor :-) (haha!)

Also managed to get about 3/4 hour weights and a bit of speedball  time in on the second night.  That felt good.  I like the weight work.  It's something I need to get back to, as it helps with stress and all that, but I'm sure also makes the cardio sessions more value - or productive.

Now I am in Nelson, and tonight I ate chocolate cake which probably defeats the last two nights rpm sessions - but hey it tasted good, and being "working class" it always tastes better when someone eleses pays:-)

"Interesting" experience for me to travel with a colleague who doesn't really "drink"  Well, of course she drinks, but you know, not alcohol.  So, at least that makes me not go wild on that factor.

Also interesting, she more or less hugs or kisses every new colleague we meet.  It creates peace and harmony and all that, but I don't completely feel at ease with this stuff in a work context.
