I've been crazy busy since my last blog so haven't had time to update. Anyway, after all the fear and worry over the urbanathlon last Saturday, I'm happy to say I completed it intact. Other than the ten miles I wasn't really in shape to run, it was alot of fun--especially the obstacles. I definitely took my time since I didn't want to go too hard because I didn't want to run out of gas before the finish--oh, and I run as slow as a turtle. In all, it was a great experience.
Week 2 of the paleo challenge. Had a few mishaps during the first week--snack size candy bar, 2 cookies, multiple Larabars at once, 1 piece of chocolate pound cake and 1 piece of banana bread. Other than the banana bread which was eaten due to being unprepared and having no other option, the rest of the slip-ups were pure lack of willpower. It's hard to beat the intense sugar cravings!
Workouts--or lack thereof, have sucked the past two weeks. I tapered the week before the urbanathlon and was just plain lazy the week before that. Today was my first day back at the box--have to set a strict schedule and stick to it from now on.
WOD:
Ring push-ups AMRAP: 10-10-11 (on knees)
Kipping pull-ups AMRAP: 10-8-8 (dead hang pull-ups with green band)
5 Rounds for time of:
5 Front squats
5 Jerks
5 Back squats
14:44@53#
Not stellar, but I'm still learning form. And I got a little tripped up in the 4th round on the jerks and almost bonked myself in the head with the bar. I was a little hesitant after that.
