Day 2

I'm sticking to the meal plan, I've gone to CrossFit twice this week, and so far so good. We did "Kelly" tonight. Ordinarily, I would've skipped this workout. Runs? Wall balls? Box jumps? My least favorite movements. And for five rounds, no less, a real test of my lasting power. But I really want to build my endurance and speed, and I won't get better if I avoid these workouts.

So I went.

It was terrible.

Finished in 31:23. Not a proud showing, and I walked on a lot of the runs, which always makes me feel bad about myself. I'm guessing the extra 10 pounds I've put on didn't help my time. But at least I didn't get a DNF?

In any event, I came home and had an incredible burst of energy. Cleaned the house and cooked two meals. Needless to say, I didn't eat until almost 9 pm (not good) and now I'm ready to crash. Must remember to get sleep or else I'll never last.

  1. Yeah Renee. Working out at 6 and eating at 9 isn't ideal. try to get that food in within an hour after working out.
