Kudos to anyone who shows up for the AM class– It was miserable enough walking out to my car to go to work at 6:30! I’ll see you in the afternoon when the sun is shining :).

not at CFWH, but in my garage this morning. It was kind of cool seeing my breath while doing Back Squats 😐

UGH!! I’m jello! Just finished doing Monday’s and today’s Met Cons back to back and I’m toast. I also worked on pull-ups and did a bunch of back squats and push presses, but not real heavy weight. Just did them to exhaustion.
Monday’s met con- 4:20 (not sure exact heigth of bench but used a step with 8 risers on each side, seemed high enough for me!!)
Tuesday’s met con- 5:35 (used 10 lb ball, the heaviest the gym had) the burpees sucked after doing 50 push-ups.
I hate that Leah & I never made it back to Crossfit last week, ended up going out of town for a couple of days, but she really liked it!

Oh yah- and thanks to Ryan for the added push on the met con. I wouldn’t have finished in that time if I didn’t see you kicking my ass out of the corner of my eye 🙂

Went for an extra set of PJ because they felt pretty good and 135 was my PR. Got 1 legit and the other 2 weren’t locked out.
