last Tuesday evening my gym instructor gave an awesome class.

She wrote down, on a black board, what specific exercise we were required to do…

30 jumping squats,

30 push ups,

30 over head presses,

Push  45 weight  across the gym floor, twice,

Walking squats across the gym floor, twice,

There were more but I cannot remember all of them, I just did as I was told and kept on moving, till I completed the list.   Of course it had to be completed twice.

Once is never enough at the gym.

I have to say I completed all required exercise before any other person in the class.  Don’t tell anyone but I am the oldest one in her class.  Shhhhh!

I was feeling the sweat running down my back.  UGH! I felt so good that I had accomplished such a hard class.

Then this Tuesday my instructor handed me a plastic bag with this pink, flat, bottle.  She said it was a prize for being the first to finish all assigned exercises.  I looked at her and said, “I had no idea that I was in a competition.”
Anyway, this pink plastic bottle looked weird. Until I opened it and realized how cool it really was. It was flat as a pancake.  

But when I filled it up with water it stood up on its own.  I loved it!  Now this flat pink water bottle comes with me to the gym.

How cool and different this bottle is.  It is light even when the water is in it.  I am so glad I don’t have to lug any more water canisters or plastic water bottles…thanks Sketchers Performance Division you really have done it!

Hmm, I wonder what gift she will be giving out next time.  Hope it is a pair of Skecher sneakers, I could really use them.
