My week in Crossfit

I feel like I haven’t run in years.It’s been 10 days.

I’m under doctor’s orders to rest and to take copious amount of drugs to cure what ails me. (Something like that.)

But when running is on the whiteboard, you have to choice but to follow coach’s orders.

Short and sweet was the “running.” Usually it is when I pick up my pace that I am overwhelmed with negative feedback from my foot. I ran hardish for the 400-metre intervals. My weight for the WOD was light. I have a big weekend of training planned (don’t judge me!) so I didn’t exactly follow the WOD instructions.I didn’t hear whimper of discomfort. Legs are good. Now it’s hours later and my foot/hip/leg are fine. Let that be a lesson to you all – drugs do not always kill.

Speaking of crossfit, I got my fat butt to four classes and one mobility class this week. I was going a little stir crazy with no running in the evenings. (I may have polished off a bottle of red.)

Monday’s WOD was challenging to say the least. You know how I suck at rowing … well this sure was a sweaty one! I still haven’t gotten over my fear of jumping since I split open my leg. It was step ups for this girl!Still I was dripping with sweat (like everyone else) after this one. Great WOD to start the week.

I am heading to Canmore early tomorrow morning. I plan on doing some hiking and some running. I have to go super early to find a camping site. If I don’t find one, I’ll be heading back to Red Deer that night. Tina is meeting me later in the afternoon.

Cross your fingers that I secure a site. Driving back would be a real letdown. I had a very stressful week and I need some time away from the city.
