I'm Back

I am offically back to Crossfit. I did my first workout on Monday. I did:

200m row

15 db cleans

15 ball slams

After 1rst round I dropped to 10 of each. 20 min cutoff and sadly I didn't even finish 4 rounds. I spent more time walking to the bathroom wishing I could puke.

Wednesday I psyched myself out of going and felt crappy all day. Thursday I tried the same stunt, but convinced myself to go. The workout was very similar.

600-500-400m row

10-15-21 ball slams

10-10-10 db presses 30lbs

This time as I started the workout I told myself over and over "YOU WILL FINISH THIS WORKOUT"

I struggled, I won't lie, but I finished the workout as prescribed. It was a rest day workout and I am sure the weight was less than other people would use, but it was the same for everyone in my group. I finished. 14:20

It is a very small victory, but at this point in the game I will take what I can get. Then I spent 15min wishing I could get sick.

Addicted

I thought I would never find anything as addictive as Crossfit. I was wrong. This weekend I finally broke down and signed up for a Facebook account. Damn. I spent about 4 hours on the damned thing on Sunday. I went 33 years without it and then Sunday night I couldn't go 10min. Even worse, it is hooked up to my phone so it goes with me everywhere. What the hell was I thinking. The last thing I needed right now is something that will take even more time away from my schedule. Anyway, as far as Crossfit, I started my one on ones again last week and plan on going to my first class this afternoon. It will be a VERY long road back. I was embarrassed by how bad I did, and felt, but I will not stop. I have also had a hard time getting back to diet. That may be an even longer road.

Sleep Walking

Bizkit, the Sleepwalking Dog @ Yahoo! Video

I start back to Crossfit tomorrow and a feel a little like this dog. I am ready to take off running, but I am not exactly sure where I am going. We will see tomorrow how I feel after a day back. We will start slow (probably for a while) till I wake up again.
