Wicked Weekend... Saturday, May 19

What a wickedly wonderful weekend to be in Cheonan, South Korea… seriously. And what a wickedly wonderful weekend to be a fabulously fun female in Cheonan, South Korea… for sure!

This weekend’s plans with Flipside Fitness:

TODAY
Advanced Boxercise
Midnight Mountain Top BBQ

TOMORROW
Shopping for Abs
Boxercise Beginners
K-Girls Boxercise

My Advanced Boxercise ladies kicked their training up a notch and were left literally making a mess on the boxing club floor with all their sweating and super hard training.  It’s days like this I definitely love doing what I’m doing – running Flipside Fitness and doing my boxercise classes.  I’ve yet to have a boxercise class that doesn’t leave me totally feeling refreshed, revived and super pumped for the rest of the week.

Later in the day, still pumped from the morning’s boxercise class, I started to prepare for tonight’s Midnight Mountain Top BBQ.  I took Pyen Chi out with me to check out the route, then I went grocery shopping so that I could cook up some of my E-Pop Bars and get stuff ready.  I called up the restaurant to make sure everything was a go-ahead and ok with the meal they were preparing -– beef stir-fry with peppers, onions, and cabbage, with mushrooms and cucumbers on the side. 

At 10:30pm we met outside of Coffee Bean.  I handed out their headlamps and off we started towards Tae Du Mountain.  For the most part, Korean mountains are spotted with random street lights but in between lights it’s rather dark, plus there’s always the occasional blown bulb, so we turned on our headlamps and up the mountain we trekked.  Pyen Chi is our Flipside Fitness mascot so she also came with us. 

Somewhere along the path we had missed our initial intended spot but somehow Snickers had anticipated it.  We kept on walking and walking but then we looked up and there before our eyes was Snickers and a massive BBQ.  He had gone up a shortcut but none the less he must have had a challenge carrying a full-sized BBQ up it; what a champ!  I laid down a large blanket, set up some cute tea light candles and there us ladies chatted up a storm while Snickers cooked a super delish meal for us.  It was quite nice having him cater to us and he insisted he didn’t mind.  I don’t think he honestly did mind too, he’s awesome like that.  He knows I don’t really get out much – beyond heading to the boxing club or training clients – so he’s always quick to support any kind of socializing I have outside of training.

There were six of us fun females that had made the trek up the mountain and though I initially thought more would have signed-up to come, it was definitely a successful event.  The ladies had a lot of fun and Snickers had fun trying to make us pee our pants by scaring us… or at least scare me.  When we were finished dinning at the top, we left Snickers and headed in the opposite direction he was going.  He had all the stuff to take down to the car and we had the hour long hike back the way we came.  Well, Snickers thought it’d be soooooooooo funny to sneak back up the mountain and come running full force at us.  I screamed at the top of my lungs – I don’t have the nerves of steel for shock surprises anymore!!!

Possible future events I’m planning to have Flipside Fitness host:
a. Solack Mountain Weekend Get-Away
b. Potluck Picnic in the Park
c. Giddy-Up Horse Races
