So the third WOD was releasedthis wednesday
A) 18 min AMRAP- FML
B)15 box jumps, 12 push press at 75lbs, and 9 toes to bar
IT was BRUTAL. I got a side ache in the middle of it. Do you know how hard it is the engage your abdominal muscles on the outside when it feels like you have a rubberband pinching ya on the inside! The weight was fairly easy for me on this workout. It was just so mental. It is hard to make yourself pick up the bar, Once it is up its no big deal but getting there is another story. Im seriously so thankful so thankful for the wonderful ladies at the Refinery. Misti is the CHEER captain. (more like drill sargeant) She is the best. She is right there with you the entire time talking you through every rep. When you get to the point where you absolutley cannot make yourself pick up the bar she has the best way of making you know you can. Love her! Jami M., Stac, and Taryn were all there too. At the end of the workout I had 5 seconds left on the clock and had just done the last nine toes to bar, ripping my thumb and I sprinted over to the box frantically and the clipboard was on it. My brain was like "What do I do!? clipppboard!" and out of nowhere, faster than lightning, Jami M. comes flying over and sweeps the clipboard and pencil off the box right as I jumped up. It was like an action movie. We felt pretty cool. Jami M. is getting pretty good at moving at lightning speed latley :)
On Monday I did a chipper that was pretty tough. 25 handsand pushups, 50 toes to bar, run 800meters, 75 pushpress (45lbs), and 150 double unders! I was the LAST person to finish the HSPU. They have been a serious weakness of mine latley! Dont know what the deal is. I think Im not great at body movements because I weigh more then girls typically weigh at my height maybe. PWYSA everyday. Speaking of PWYSA forgot to do my extra homework (pistols, butterfly pullups, strict ring pullups) and now I get to do 100 wallballs this week. cant wait. Sam did help me with my pistols earlier this week though. Put my heels up on a small plate (5 pounder) and it helps so much. Sun told me too I also need to do them quicker.
Did a little run with Jeanette Yesterday morning. We were both whining and moaning and half way she looks down at her Garmin and we were under a 7 minute mile! No wonder we were hurting. We slowed it down to a 7:35 and average and 8:35 for the rest of the run. 2nd fastest we've ever ran the river loop- 39 minutes! 4.8-ish miles. Love my runs with Jeanette. We are planning a 5 mile hulls gulch, then a 7 mile hulls gulch next week and then two weeks doing the canyon (Robie) oh boy. I can feel the burn in my booty already! It is such a great feeling when you reach the top its just getting there and fighting that little voice in your head thats saying, "Girl you're crazy!"
So it is my favorite week! BIRTHDAY WEEK. My sister's birthday is the 10th, mine is the 13th, and my mom's is the 14th! We've had this tradition for the last couple of years of doing birthday weekend. We get together and do fun stuff and this year we have wild and rambunctious Maddie Mo to entertain us! I love my Birthday. Pretty much everyone in the world does, even if they won't admit it. It just brings back childhood memories of my mom making our birthday cake, hiding it in the cupboard, ane me pretending I didn't find it. Its like Christmas at our house. We usually would have spaghetti for a birthday dinner and my mom would always wake us up singing happy birthday, even when I was 17 years old. She is the best at making birthdays special and fun! :)
So its birthday week and I have been doing this strict paleoness for aprox 60ish days I think. Somewhere around there and I decided I am going to eat a damn cupcake :) I reallllly LOVE cupcakes! Seriously. I would eat one everyday or at least every Friday if I could. So its proabably a good thing that when I google paleo cupcakes.....they all look gross. A cupcakes made with coconut flour, almond meal, and organic something or another is just not the same. (although Im sure Taryn could make it taste pretty darn good, she has magical paleo baking powers I swear!) I def judge a cupcakes by its iceing too and its hard to make a paleo cupcake pretty. So my solution to this problem, Im just going to eat a damn cupcake for my birthday :)
Wish the solution to talking my boyfriend into getting a kitten was this simple ;)
