Yokosuka Aquatics dominated a continuous workout that incorporated three different types of cardio: running, dancing and swimming. The Terrific Triathlon of Triumph included a run blitz, Zumba class, and water polo game.

To begin, we went for a cadence around the sea wall on base. While running, we sang Camp Adventure songs, with each counselor leading one song. The combination of running and singing was definitely a challenge, but one that the counselors enjoyed. Some of the songs included in the run were "Lifeguard Josh," "Boom Chicka Boom" and "Summer's Here".

The second part of the triathlon was a Zumba class. Zumba is a combination of international dance and fitness with the aim of making exercising fun. This workout is considered cutting edge in the respect that it is non-traditional. The various beats and tempos allow for concentrated muscle toning. One of our MWR co-workers graciously volunteered her time to lead the class. As a staff, we loved moving our hips and grooving to the beat.

Concluding this epic Triathlon of Triumph, we played water polo game in our tall socks. Splitting up into equal groups, each team designated a representative for the coin toss. Once the toss was done, the game began. Playing a half court game, we had participants swim the ball back whenever the opposing team scored. Being a competitive group, we had a lot of fun working on our threading in the water.

In our video, you may or may not have noticed some unfamiliar faces; this is because we opened our alternative workout up to our MWR co-workers in an effort to develop a stronger relationship with them.

Everyone that participated had a FINTASTIC time. There is even talk of holding a second triathlon later in the summer!
