CrossFit Day 82

Today’s workout was my first workout in a week. Last Thursday, I was really sore from Filthy Fifty. Over the long weekend, there was a rainstorm and a whole bunch of Apollo making excuses. But, today, I decided to get busy with it again and stop being a little pansy. Today’s work was four rounds of the 400 meter run, followed by a 2 minute rest period after each. My route’s about 425 meters per leg. I’ve done this workout once before.

I waiting until about 11:15 pm to get ready and go out to the sidewalk to do the work. I didn’t really have a goal this time, except to beat my previous attempt. Realizing that I’ve been off it for a week, I thought my chances of vastly improving my time were minimal, but I could still go after it.

I ran well and the weather cooperated with me (it was forecast to be cold and rainy tonight). This felt pretty good and I’m glad I decided not to blow off my fifth straight scheduled workout. That’s totally bullshit and it’s time to soldier up. Hoo-ah.
