Entering a troubling time…

2 hours to get my 10 page paper submitted. Currently on page 3. Spending too much time watching Saved By the Bell, The Mystery of Edwin Drood on PBS, tumblr, etc.

Not pleased with tomorrow’s WOD: 20 min AMRAP - 400m run, 50 bar hurdles, 15 thrusters.

Early Bird Special: When Nike gave Internet video maker Casey Neistat a hefty advance payment and orders to #makeitcount, it’s unlikely this is what the company had in mind. Nicely done.

4/4/12 WOD

5 rounds for time:

15 OHS (35lb)

15 box jumps (12”)

14:36. Did 2 rounds of 15, and then had to drop to 10 reps…I was DYING.

Still pretty happy with this considering my legs were still pretty toasty from squat cleans on Monday. But I have to say…I actually LIKED the OHS! Didn’t think I would.

What a DAY!

Spent the day in NYC at the AATE mini-conference. Workshops on teaching Shakespeare (got some good tips/project ideas!) and Living Newspaper (so interesting! Definitely will incorporate into my TH2 class next year!) Just the kind of refresher I needed!

Got home just in time for a late Crossfit class…today’s WOD: “Elizabeth”. For me, I think I did very well!

21-15-9

Squat Cleans (I did 45lb)

Ring Dips (I did  them on the little pipe bars…do those have a shmancy name??)

16:20. VERY proud of myself. This was one of the hardest workouts for me so far…my arms/shoulders are super weak, and the warmup (goblet squats and taters) practically took out my legs before we even started!

I thought I would be intimidated because the 5:30 class is more advanced in general than my usual 12:30 or 8:30, but I hung in there, and found myself to be less distracted than I normally am, which was surprising!

Final night of auditions tonight for Steel Magnolias…had some SERIOUSLY fierce ladies come out! Callbacks and final casting are going to be TOUGH! But I am very excited by the prospects.

WHAT. A. DAY.

Apr 1

Had a lovely weekend celebrating my birthday with friends and family. Excited for first night of Steel Magnolias auditions tonight and see some fierce ladies do their thang. Even MORE excited for the AATE conference tomorrow in NYC! 

Birthday WOD!

12 min AMRAP:

10 push jerks (50lb)

20 box jumps (12”)

30 double unders (90 singles)

Completed 2 rounds and 12 reps. Was sweating like a MOTHER after but really happy with my push jerk weight.

Joined today by my dad and my brother, who go to a different box. Fun was had by all!

WOD 3/28/12

15 min AMRAP:

1 Power Snatch (RX was 95, I did 55)

1 Round of Cindy 

Got 6 rounds and a snatch. Pretty happy with myself!

Next WOD will be my birthday WOD! My dad and brother (who go to a different box) will be joining me. Can’t wait, gonna be a blast! :)
