I Am CrossFit!!!

CrossFit Central is starting their "I Am CrossFit" Program tomorrow, so I decided to explain why I am CrossFit...



Still Bloody!!!






I Am CrossFit...

Because I enjoy PAIN!

Tues. Dec. 30th
Rest Day

Wed. Dec. 31st (New Year's Eve)
WOD
Fight Gone Bad!!!
327

Not a Pr, but finally head back in that direction. My last 2 were 309, and 305. I want 380 for 2009...I know it's a lofty goal, but it's a long long year!!!!

Thurs. Jan 1st 2009
WOD
"Murph"

No Better way to start the New Year then with a Hero WOD for an amazing Navy Operator!!!

33:47...No Kit, it's packed away for shipment to the states, next time I promise!!! Also, no a PR, last time was in 31 and change, but a I said then, I felt cheated on it. It was an indoor track and I'm not convinced it was actually a mile around the track...I actually measured this one out with 2 different GPS units....Still an ok time. 1st run was in 6:30, not sure about the 2nd, but it was around 7 mins. The last .5 miles was in 3:47...RIP Brother...

Fri. Jan. 2nd
WOD
Clean and Jerk
With a continuously running clock do one 135 pound Clean and Jerk the first minute, two 135 pound Clean and Jerks the second minute, three 135 pound Clean and Jerks the third minute... continuing as long as you are able.

8 Full rnds...did not start 9, but I slacked cause I should have at least done as many reps as I could have even though I would have not gotten 9, I probably would have gotten at least 6. So, I punished myself and did 4 sets of 5 with 1 min rest between sets, to work on technique, and make sure I did more of my potential! Felt kinda crappy about 8 rnds but POT only did 10, so no too bad I guess...

After my workout, I went to get my new tat. My B-day Present to myself as I will be turning 31 on the 17th. Not getting any younger, but it feels that way!

I Am CrossFit because I'm in better shape now then when I was 20!!!!
