Thursday

My plans to sleep in were ruined by mind insisting it was time to get up.  Sometimes I have no control over it.  Might as well get up and work out, if I can't sleep.

For Time:
1200m Run or Row
25 KBS 70/55/35/25
25 Sit-ups ab-mat unanchored
25 Push-ups
1200m Row or Run (opposite of last)
25 KBS 70/55/35/25
25 Sit-ups
25 Push-ups
800m Run or Row (opposite of last)
25 KBS 70/55/35/25
25 Sit-ups
25 Push-ups
800m Row or Run (opposite of last)
25 KBS 70/55/35/25
25 Sit-ups
25 Push-ups

My time:  43:37, Rx

Rx is a little misleading, as there was no true "Rx" today.  But, I ran, I did 35# kettlebell, I did legit sit ups, and I did legit push ups so...I'm going with Rx here.

This was just a good old fashioned CF workout.  Set your mind to it and get it done, piece by piece.  I was slower than probably everyone else at the gym for the entire day (willing to bet on it).  But glad I did it.  My running is slow, but I am in no pain whatsoever, so PT and stretching is the key.

I did a few double-unders after the WOD just to see how it felt.  Doubles are in the first WOD for Battle Over Red Lands.

She's ALIVE!

Hello.

Anybody out there?

Well, I'm back.  For now anyway.  Just thought I'd add a little spark of life to this dying blog while I"m feeling enthused.

Today I gutted up and signed up for Battle Over Redlands IV!

I have had a rough year, starting with all that respiratory crap January through March.  Then made a slight come back in April to run the Aquarium 5k and ended up with a stress fracture.  Got that healed up and then had some issues with my calf muscles/achilles tendonits.  Anyway, here we are in October and I'm feeling pretty decent.  Not back full force on double unders yet, but I'll suck it up and do them for this competition.  It'll be fun.  Ha!

I'll try to start blogging my WODs on a regular basis again, if only to motivate myself.  Doubt I have a single reader left at this point.
