"So do you know what compartment you're in?" I questioned.
"I think my dad said B. But I really have no clue."
"I'm on B too! I can show you around if you want!" Alison interrupted, eager to have a new friend.
"Okay, well I'll let Alison show you around, nice meeting you!"I didn't really know what to do except go back to my room, so I decided I would go put some athletic clothes on and go to the gym. I walked back up to my room, stripped down, and found a cute pair of black Nike shorts, a blue Nike tank top, and my adorable black Roshe Runs. Then, I put my hair into a slicked back pony tail and put my things back away since they weren't dirty. On my way out, I could hear Alison and Alyssa conversing in Alison's room. I stride over to Alyssa's room and told her I was going to workout, then I was on my way.
It actually took me a few minutes to find the training room, but it was workout heaven. I always have sort of been in shape, because I've been playing soccer since pre-school, but something about working out also calmed me. I can get relaxed and take out my anger on a treadmill, and when I'm on the field, I can dribble the ball down the field in a few simple strides and forget everything that's going on.
When I looked around the room, I was amazed. They had really accounted for us to be in shape. There were cases of bottled water, yoga mats rolled up perfectly, three treadmills, bench-presses, dumbbells, and just about anything else I could think of. I decided to do a few simple stretches to get warmed up, and then run on the treadmill. Then, I would use the dumbbells and step-ups. Having an itinerary made me feel useful, so I always planned out my day before-hand. However, that has been a little difficult lately, what with the world going crazy, and me being on the road. After some simple, yet effective stretches that worked my legs and arms, I hopped on the treadmill and turned it on. I took a few deep breaths, warmed up on a low setting, then I set the treadmill up to run for fifteen minutes. It's been almost two weeks since I worked out, so I think I should start small and work my way up.
As I neared the end of my short run, I could definitely feel the muscles I'm my legs aching for more, so I ran a quick extra five minutes. When I was done, I felt exhilarated.I stepped off of the machine, and ran a hand up to my hair, smoothing my honey blonde locks back, then I tuned both hands to tighten my pony, and marched straight over to the step-up blocks and dumbbells. I picked up the small 7 pound weights, and pulled the box to where I could start my activity. I had one weight in each hand, and first I held my arms to my side and did a few squats. Next, I started to feel sweat beads pooling on my body but I pushed on. 'Just Do It' was what my shirt read in big black letters, and that I did. I continued to work on my arms and legs for thirty minutes, and receded back to the treadmill for a cool down run. My JV coach from eighth and ninth grade convinced me to love cool down runs, and now I didn't feel right if I didn't run after a workout.
Just then, someone burst through the door wearing nothing but a black pair of shorts hanging just above his knees and some tennis shoes. It was none other than Calum Hood.
"Carter? What are you doing?"
"Just working out. I was almost done."
"Why?"
"I don't know. I play, well, played soccer and I like to run."
"I did too. That's cool. Me too. But you can't get a body like this without the work." He said, flexing his arms up and down and winking, showing a flirty smile.
"Well," I said. "My run is over, and I would stretch but you kinda seem like a perve."
"I'm not gonna lie, Carter. You're pretty hot, and also right.. But whatever, I'll see you at dinner." He said, picking up a fifty pound weight and making his abs flex. I rolled my eyes. "Bye Calum!"
