Hello Again!

Can't seem to keep up with this blog.  I've been a busy girl this summer!  Since I last wrote on here, I've been on two lovely trips to the Virgin Islands.  The first one was entirely a leisure trip with friends.  We went on a crewed catamaran charter and enjoyed lots of island time.

Here we are on day 1, ready to set sail

.












The second trip was more of a working vacation (with strangers).  We still went ashore and had some good meals and drinks, but we were learning to sail on this trip.  It was hard work every day, learning every aspect of the boat from the engines to raising the sails and learning to use the wind to your advantage, studying and taking tests.  I am now have 4 sailing certificates, ASA 101, 103, 104 and 114.  Basically I'm now qualified to captain a 50' catamaran!  Woo hoo!  You're never too old to learn!

Here is the crew at the end of the school week:



Anyway, I'm back at CrossFit and feeling pretty decent.  Today's WOD was way more pull ups than I can do in 20 minutes but I took a good stab at it!

“2007″ CF Games WOD 2007 & 2013 & 2014 Masters WOD
For time:
1000 Meter row
then
5 rounds of:
25 Pull-ups
7 Push jerk (Men 135 lbs, Women 95 lbs)

I actually did this as an AMRAP, 'cause no way I can get 125 pull ups that fast.

My rounds:  2 + 20 pull ups





Strength today was push Jerk or Split Jerk
