Musings During Hula Hoop

[ 0 ] 03/29/2009 |

I decided to “drink the kool-aid” and I am participating in our Hula Hoop Mini Challenge.

Today was the first time that I have ever done Wii Fit Hula Hoop for 10 minutes AT THE SAME TIME.

Here are some thoughts that ran through my head during these 10 minutes:

  • Wow.  Who thought up this challenge?
  • Ten minutes sure is a long time.
  • I think I might throw-up.
  • Breathe.  Hula.  Breathe.  Hula.
  • How many more seconds do I have left?
  • Ah hell, now I have to hula to the left!  Wasn’t one way enough?
  • I wish there were different musical sets to pick from.
  • It sure is hard to hula to the left.  My body seems so awkward.
  • I better “catch” all the hula hoops tossed at me if I want to get the highest score.
  • I can’t believe it.  I am actually gasping for breathe from hula-hooping.  Who ever knew?
  • Does this hula hoop make me look skinny?

My grand total for today’s hula was 3360 spins- not too shabby!  Good luck to everyone participating!
