6AM and a whole lot of Pushing.

Wednesday for me means 6AM CrossFit....at least while I am teaching the 5K clinic - it is the only way to make it work.

You may feel awake but you get to the box and pick up some weights and you realize...YUP...your body is still sleeping.

WOD

7 Push Press (Rx wor Women was 75lbs)

7 Pull Up

10 KB Swings (16kgs for Women)

Repeat 3 times

Rest 2 minutes

4 Rounds

Time: 24:24

I tried the 75lbs even though I knew there were LOTS of reps and thought I could do it. First SET was easy. Then when I got to the KB - my very first swing - it went up...and up...and up and then the KB flipped over to the back side of my hand and fell....It was slow motion and I was hoping it wouldn't hit me. It missed - fell to the floor and besides tweaking my shoulder and wrist I was thrown off. I finished my 10 KB swings and then picked up the bar with 75 and mentally was done. I dropped 5lbs and did the remaining rounds with 70lbs. It was tough.

Wednesday night we had our run club with the clinic - it wasn't as fast as Sunday but I snuck some interval training in by going from the back to the front and then re-catching up with the first person. They did great. I also found 2 people willing to be group leaders and maybe 3 for next time so I could take Sunday's off to train for my full.......hmmmm...which brings up another point....but that should be it's own entry....maybe it's own blog....
