Dear Journal


The WOD today was good!  I enjoyed it.  500m row for time.  2min. 35s.  We did "Jackie" today

“Jackie”

1000m row

50 thruster 45/35

30 pull up

I did it it in 13:03

I actually find that I would like to go to the gym more often then just 3x a week.  Not sure if my body can take it or not, but I find too long in between leaves me feeling sluggish.  I can try to do WOD's from home but it is very hard to keep motivated lol.

Can I just say that cutting out wheat in my diet has become quite the challenge!  I am not doing so well the last couple of days.  I am trying really hard.  Tonight I indulged in tacos :(

Dear Journal

So my last workout was Friday... it is Wednesday.  Something came up for my workout yesterday and then today I was put on a waiting list for the only class I could attend.  The coaches were great and gave me a workout I could do at home.  I have to admit the idea of working out at home is not something I am very eager to see through.  I am not sure if its just cause I am not feeling well and really tired, but I am slowly losing motivation to go... THIS CAN NOT HAPPEN!!

On a side note, my split jerk max was 75lbs.  This is very exciting for me :)

GOAL #1 - to do 1 pull up!!

GOAL  #2 - run 800m without stopping

A new Journey

Dear Journal

I started crossfit a few weeks ago.  I have finished my second complete week!  WOW is all I can say.  I have never been so beat up in my life, and I have to say I am just starting to kind of like it.
I get a high after I am done the WOD, knowing that I did something better than I had done the day before.
And the support!!!  Everyone is so amazing!  I will be honest and tell you that I cried during my first two work outs... Not from the pain (which was horrible) but from the support that these ladies and men gave me.
I come home from every class and can not stop talking about crossfit!  I am sure everyone around me are tired of hearing about it.  So I have decided to start blogging about my journey.  I am definitely not a writer so PLEASE don't search for spelling or grammar mistakes.  If you don't like it, you don't have to read it!

So in three weeks I have lost 2.5 inches in my waist, 1 inch on my chest and an inch on my hips.  I am down 7 lbs.

I will put up official stats later...
