So I went Saturday 5/4 for my first time. And I killed a bearded turkey. I know that toms are 2 years at least and this guy may have had, 3/4 inch spurs, 7-8 inch beard, probably a tom rather than a jake but just by the hair of his chin. A trophy still cause…

“W” and I decided to do the CrossFit WOD 5 rounds body weight bench press, reps to failurepull ups, reps to failure I didn’t go down with a plan and so nothing really worked… oh well. I messed around with Box Jump Burpee ups, which are a lot cooler when somebody else does them. I…

Ran the 3.2 mile loop non-stop today. Not fast mind you, but, I did the whole thing. YEAH for me. Next goal is to do it at a respectable speed. I suppose the goal after that is to run it the other direction so the hills are against me, but, that is a ways off.

Crappy overcast and rain so I ran on the treadmill. Basically, just another suck fest. Although I’m not proud of it I guess it is good to find the hole and start to fix it. Heart pounding sucking for air. I tried for 3 miles, started at 6 mph for the first mile, down to…
The vast emptiness of a 15 block meal plan.
Ok. So the progress has started again, down 16 pounds from the starting weight. It is nice to mark some progress. People have commented how lean my face is becoming. Not that that really helps — I of course want to hear that my gut is becoming lean, alas. I noticed some veins showing just…

So, rather like the stubborn coot that I am, I laced on the shoes and had a go at the 3 mile loop again today. 25 degrees cooler and a nice breeze and I did a lot better. Still embarassing, but at least not pathetic.

So, I thought to self, “self” I said: I’m going for a run… I’ll run the 3 mile loop. Boy how pathetic that was. Yes, it was 85 degrees, yes, the pollen count was probably out the roof, yes my shoes are old and should be replaced. None of which justifies just how pathetic that…

Workout group had about a dozen folks show up. Warm Up and Mobility Standard Fair Did a bunch of triplets, with medicine balls. 4-6 rounds of each triplet. Mostly today was about mental toughness. Just had to keep going. “J” added metabolic work on the last rounds, so about 60-90 seconds of Burpees, or Jumping…

Today was kind of a bust. Not really surprising after yesterdays high. I rowed for 10 minutes, did some lack luster OHS, and Dumbbell Snatch, gave up and did some stretching. My shoulder was tender too, so that kinda damped things down a bit. I’m sure that like everyone else I struggle with the whole…
