Pass me the Elastoplast and lets get on with it
My hands are a wreck.
After Mondays hand wrecking triplet we had another one tonight.
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 - Reps of
Knee to Elbow
Box Jumps
50kg Push press
Going down in reps is one thing. Each round seems to get easier but going up is a different story. My hands were basically one big open sore on each hand but when I got there one of the coaches threw me a roll of...

I bought a new gym bag today…
My WOD shorts broke last night*…
Gah…
*I got the draw string in a tight knot and couldn’t get them off. as I was wriggling then down past my ass the waist band snapped - HULK style!
This post is trying to distract you from the fact that I just paid $99 for a gym bag!

Pull ups

Considering several people at work have asked if I ran the London marathon yesterday because I’m “walking funny!”

21-15-9
Normally when I walk into Crossfit Reading and see 21-15-9 on the white board I pretty much shit myself. even though it doesn’t sound like a long WOD its normally pretty intense.
But it wasn’t Fran (I worship at the church of Camille) or any of the other benchmark girls.
21-15-9
Reps of
Deadlifts
Boxjumps
We were told to work at 65% of our One Rep Max and that meant that I...

A Run, At Last A Run
For some reason I forgot to post my run last night. I ended up joining my running club after not attending since the second week of January (remember the whole ‘gonna work on my crossfit more’ comment’)
Well I decided to run with the London Marathoners who were doing their last run before Sunday. I thought this would be good for me as it wouldn’t be too intense.
A 4-5...

OK so here we go...
After reading through the comments from my previous post and understanding that this is my little space to post what ever the hell I like I have decided to keep a record of my workouts. Now I just need to find the time to do so each day.
I’m going to be 100% honest with you and tell you that since the last marathon in January I haven’t been running much. Have pretty much just stuck...

Have I become boring?
Recently I have been reluctant in posting my workouts and running because I feel that I end up posting a a workout or a run and it doesn’t really mean much to anyone.
Does my workout really matter to you? Do you want to know what I do in the gym each day?
What do you want to see?
These are questions I keep asking myself as I sit in front of an empty text box each night to which I...
Eulogy
xpltvdeleted:
Not everyone grows up to be an astronaut.
Not everyone was born to be a king.
Not everyone can be Freddy Mercury
But everyone can raise a glass and sing.
Well I haven’t always been a perfect person.
I haven’t done what mother done and dreamed.
But on the day I die I’ll say At least I fucking tried.
And that’s the only eulogy I need.
That’s the only eulogy I’ll need.
