I STILL LOVE CROSSFIT!

Amazing how quickly that little (big) attitude problem I'd been having all week was solved by just a little bit of crossfit. ENDORPHINS FTW!  And considering I hadn't done any kind of substantial workout for over 50 days, I really think I came out pretty well.

WOD was:
20min amrap
400m run
20 broad jump burpees
15 box jumps
10 pull ups
5 wall climbs

I only got through 2 rounds (plus another 400m run), but there were other people at the same pace as me. And I probably should/could have used a 20" box instead of 16", but I didn't want to push it. And I didn't ever have to go up to the blue band on the pull-ups, which was good.

Wall climbs continue to be a bitch.

But afterwards I got a little lesson in rope climbing, and I'm going back early tonight to practice some more :D

Update!

Hey yall.  I'm still alive.
And crazy busy:

1) Working full-time.
2) Grad school full-time.
3) Graduate capstone project due June 5th.
4) Ancora board secretary.
5) PREPPING FOR KOREA.*

other factors:
- crossfit**
- commuting via bike/bus


* Job searching for ESL teaching positions in Seoul - hopefully starting between July 15 and August 31.  Also, doing the HCG Diet in hopes of being able to buy clothes in Korea (the most purposefully skinny country in the world).

** HCG Diet prevents me from doing crossfit for 40 days.  Just like jesus in the dessert.  JUST LIKE THAT.  Also because i don't get to eat very much.  But, like, it's super exciting in many respects.
And i started another blog to chronicle my HCG adventure (just like everyone else who tries it): CLICK HERE.
