Back At It

So, I just took 3 weeks off from CrossFit and it felt great! Going into vacation I thought I'd go crazy after a few days of CrossFit-Withdraw, but I felt great taking it easy and resting...the whole 3 weeks! I walked a lot and ran 3 or 4 times but only when I felt like it. I got back into town tonight so I did the 50 burpees at home in 6:15. Until Thursday...

Tabata Something Else

"Tabata Something Else"

Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals are squats. There is no rest between exercises.

Post total reps from all 32 intervals to comments.
Total: 301

21-15-9 reps of:
Clean 135 pounds
Ring dips
I used 80#, bands for dips & my time was 8:15. Last time I did this, exactly 3 months ago I used the same weight but used negatives for dips. So...either I'm not improving that much or else using bands are that much harder. I'm telling myself it's the 2nd option. Regardless, next time I'd like to use more weight for cleans and just suck through it!

Almost Race Day

I've been taking it easy this week in preparation for race day tomorrow. I've gotta say that when I saw Filthy 50 and then Michael show up as WOD's even I was grateful for an excuse not to do them. I've been tired so I'm hoping 2 rest days in a row will get me itching to give it my all tomorrow. Yesterday the girls and I went to Nashville to pick up my running packet and them stock up on all the free samples. Below is a picture of the girlies during our lunch outside the expo. While I'm not thrilled about the early morning, and I'm sure I won't sleep tonight b/c I always get nervous when I have a goal (to break 2 hours), I'm excited for the race...I haven't raced in a year and it's the races that make running fun. I'm mean, you're pampered, right? Loads of people handing you drinks & fruit & thousands of people encouraging you...So...bring on the warm weather...here we go!
