Everyone from CFRX seems to be having a lot of fun while Kath from CFNA suffers through her push presses during Fight Gone Bad…

So Laura, that conversation we had this morning about how the way you feel about a workout when you’re doing it doesn’t always translate into the actual time it takes to do it…a few weeks ago, we did a 3K, and I tried as hard as I could, really felt like I was going all out to do well, and turned in a time of 23 minutes and change. Very disappointing. Today for the 5K I decided to run at a clean steady pace and felt no pressure to turn in a good time. Ran it in 40.02–and I felt good about that time, which turns out to be EXACTLY THE SAME PACE as the 3K when I was trying so hard and felt rotten about it. Weird.
So! Was fortunate enough to get over to CF Atlanta for a workout today. It was great being back in the old garage. Saw some old faces and a couple of new ones (great meeting you Amber). Did a WOD that I am calling “Way Too F**king Heavy”!
5 Rounds For Time:
5 100# Kettle Swings
5 50# Slam Balls
As Rx-4:15
Also, after over a year and a half I FINALLY got a PR on my max rep pull ups. I did 28, the most I had done was 26 back in early ’07……good day!!
omg that picture is too hilarious. What is QF DOING??? Cheerleading?! Nobody’s even givin me luuvvv.
HAHAHA
Kath – they were too busy laughing at me doing box jumps! QF was counting the number of times I was cursing her out
That picture is PRICELESS. It looks like she is rallying for world peace while Kath is cursing the world off.
Because I put the curses in my pocket, to use on a rainy (or Fran-tastic!) day. I am saving those up and plan on getting some great use out of them!
Two in the pocket, my friends. Two.
Guess who got their first pull up tonight…..then did like 20 more????
Hint, starts with “S” and ends with “A” and has “A” “RINA” in the middle!! AKA “Miss I can’t do it YALL!!”
Congrats little person, I told you it would happen;-)
To be fair, there was a time when I couldn’t do it. And yes, I am a good southerner. Wow, look at that . . . y’all got pull ups AND a blog out of me in the same day. I’m a little freaked out to be honest . . .
Nice day today…not my best 5k, but a nice day nonetheless.
25:42
If I can get this video to work, it’s gonna be a really cool day on our blog tomorrow! So exciting!
33:30. PR by 3:20. More importantly, ran the whole f-ing thing. Not one walk, stop, etc. Even when the Marta bus turned into the station as I was about to cross, I jogged in place. All that to say, PR by 2 miles since 1 mile was the farthest I’d run before today.
