Clemson Football and a Boot Camp Beating
Saturday was a wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am visit to Clemson for the homecoming game against Miami. Margaret, Andrea, and Marie and I left Charleston at 6 am in the morning and headed upstate. For over 4 hours, Andrea drove with Margaret up front, while Marie worked on solving a Rubix cube (yes, really) and I did crosswords on my ipod. Dorks.
It was my first Clemson game and I loved it. So much orange everywhere!
I think the balloons were one of my favorite parts.
During halftime, I hung out with TJ and Matt, aka my prom dates.
After the game, I ran into CORY!! Cory hasn't been on the blog since last Summer and he was not happy about that. I told him to snap a picture with me and that would change stat.
After an excessive amount of tailgating and barhopping, I was more than ready to start the Pura Vida Fitness boot camp I had signed up for. A couple weeks ago, there was a $25 Groupon special for 8 boot camp sessions at the Mt. Pleasant Waterfront Park. $25 to undo all the damage I've been doing this football season? YES PLEASE! Right after work, Amanda, Mary, and I all met at the park to get our butts in shape.
We did lots of cardio and plyometrics. Amanda was really good at the sea turtles exercise. Check out her form!
I was a fan of thrusting my glutes, duh.
Mary was not a fan of all the sprinting we had to do, but look at that champion go!
Our muscles got bigger after only one session!
We'll have class on both Mondays and Wednesdays for the next 4 weeks. If you're in the Charleston area and would like to sign up, check out Lisa's site or give her a call. It's a lot of fun!

Yay, you went to Clemson! Love the orange ensemble. Where are your cowboy boots from, I have been looking for a pair.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I am hoping to sign up for a boot camp soon, looks fun!
Those boots you have with that dress are adorable! =)
ReplyDeleteI love plio's, best workout ever. They always make me sweat!
Football games are so much fun! I love your orange dress by the way, where did you find it?
ReplyDeleteAgh, that boot came sounds like a blast (and a kick in the butt!). If I were out east, I'd totally join in!
Ahhh! I LOVE all of the orange in this post :) (it's my favorite color)
ReplyDeleteSUPER cute boots- they look adorable with your orange dress :)
I used to go to a boot camp class- it was so much fun- and an awesome workout. The girl that I took it with actually does not teach it anymore, but it was fun while it lasted.
Fun!! I need a bootcamp to undo my football fun! LOL Love the pics of you crazy girls working out - hilarious! I've never been to a clemson game - heart those balloons.
ReplyDeleteI love how you're suddently into college football after your first game a few weeks ago :P It's weird, but even when I have student tickets..I still only go to one game and that's the one my family decides to come down to. Every other week I end up selling them- you can make good money that way! haha :P I'd be at every one of them if it weren't for the possibility of extra cash, though.
ReplyDeletei cried a little reading this... NOT okay.. exact. .same..place as.. ME
ReplyDeleteHaha, those balloons are def awesome. And I love how you still look fab at a game and not necessarily wearing sport gear. LOVE the boots!!
ReplyDeletelove the action shots from start to finish of the balloons. You sure are embracing college football season to the fullest! oh and you look so cute with your orange dress and boots!
ReplyDeleteI agree I love the boot/dress combo. Boot camp looks awesome!

ReplyDeletehaha boot camp! yay! have fun with that! Isn't it wonderful to have friends that workout and have common interests as us!
Glad the game was fun! Love your outfit- cute boots. Hooray for a new fitness routine too! I am a big fan of boot camp style workouts. Hope the week treats you well
ReplyDeleteyou look super cute in your tailgating gear. :)
ReplyDeletebut i really think you should try a Gamecock game...it's well worth it (and much closer).
Hey - didn't Caitlin from HTP go to that game too? Fun! I love tailgating too - I mean, anything with food and people is awesome, right?!
ReplyDeleteI love going to football games! I was so bummed that it rained for our homecoming game this year. :( That Clemson game looks like a blast though!
ReplyDeleteThat's a wicked deal for the bootcamp classes!
Wow--that football game was PACKED! Makes ours look very small haha!
ReplyDeleteYou guys kicked some but huh? haha LOVE the end pic! Your pics from the game are awesome! That aside where did you get your boots? I need to know ;)
ReplyDeleteLove that dress you are wearing! Super cute. Yay for boot camp! The thrusting of the booty is my favorite too! Great for your back and butt! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun day. I haven't been to a boot camp class in a while but I do like 'em. Your orange dress is wicked cute!
ReplyDeletewhere did you get those boots?! I love them!
ReplyDeleteI like you more and more now that you're enjoying football! I used to not like it at all and only went to socialize, but now I'm ALL ABOUT my team winning and will let everyone around me know it! HA! Your gal-roadtrip looks like it was SO fun! I've only been to one game- Penn State- this season but miss going to games so much!
ReplyDeleteLove the bootcamp! I went to a Cathy Savage workshop this past Sunday and thought I was seriously going to die right there on the wooden aerobics floor. I felt like such a pansy having to take "time outs" but I'm not used to such intense workouts. I definitely need to condition myself so that I'll be ready in two weeks for the next one!
This looks like alot fun! You are your girlfriends are adorable! PS: Groupon is the best thing ever!
ReplyDeleteI'm so huge between the 2 of you baby-sized people...Get taller!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun weekend! I love the baloons at the game, too - the orange against the blue sky is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm super jealous of your boot camp - that looks like such a fun time! I'll have to keep my eye out for something like that in my area.
I loove the dress you wore to the game!! And boot camp looks like a fun way to work out. I've never tried anything like it!
ReplyDeleteyall are dedicated to get up so early and make the trip up there for a noon game! I stayed in town and we didnt even make it to the bar to watch until 1245ish. My brother was up there, he is a Miami fan. Him and his friends drove all the way from Miami to Clemson on Friday and back on Sunday. Serious dedication.
ReplyDeleteThat class looks way too fun! I neeeed to find one!!
ReplyDeleteOMGaaa, I am beyond jealous that you were in Clemson for the homecoming game! I haven't been to TigerTown in FOUR years! Tear.
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely looking group of ladies!
ReplyDeleteokay, that's a TON of orange-i love it. fans always excite and amaze me. i enjoy seeing people supporting their team. holla, holla.
and ps, girlfriend! i LOVEEEE your orange dress. where from? it's adorable!
Boot Camp sounds like a lot of (workout) fun! Of course, I probably wouln't think that if I did it... ;-)
