  Well, yesterday was Wii Wednesday and I'm feeling it this morning...lol. It was me and Gato and Rick playing and we had so much fun. It's amazing how good you can get at tennis! That's all we played. Me and Gato brought our own wiimotes and even our Wii in case we played Ravin Rabbid b/c we have unlocked the entire game.
  
  Yesterday, I got an email inviting me to Maine for a conference about exergaming! So glad that I'm making connections and getting the word out about Group Exercise Instructors and the Wii. Building bridges between the ideas and practical applications with groups for fitness' sake.
  
  Today is the last day (and boy am I happy!) of the first ever Virtual Fitness FABB summer training camp. Everyone does deserve a certificate for Virtual Fitness FABB Facilitator with the Wii. These young boys have really worked hard and believe me, I worked 'em! Imagine playing Wii Sports for an hour, then DDR for an hour, then Wii Fit for an hour. It's been so much fun for me as well as hectic (in my apartment!) and stressful (eating us out of house and home) and I enjoyed it immensely. This is not the end, this is the beginning and I'm really looking forward to developing this very local, micro-micro, community approach to fitness.
  
  As far as Group Ex instructors, I'm still reaching out and propagating the need to get with the 21st century and learn about Virtual Fitness and Exergaming so that we can be an integral part of the process that expands this field. If your interest is piqued, join my LInkedIn group and help build the field.
  
  Okay, I'm going to eat breakfast...
