Friday

almost bagged it this am. rolled over and was going to reset the clock but said no and got up.
sometimes that in and of itself is a victory
my neck is sore this am. not sure if i slept on it weird or if its from the powercleans yesterday.
checked out the mainsite wod and its a real bitch. figured what better way to start a friday!

warm up
run 1/2 mile
just to open up the legs. little late and there was plenty of running in the wod

strength warm up
3 rounds
10 push ups
10 squats
10 sit ups
tried to get the neck a little looser. seemed to work pretty well. little stiff and sore but not so bad

wod
EVA
5 rounds for time
run 800m
30 kb swings 2-pood
30 pull ups

man this is a bear. the heaviest kettlebell at the gym it 37.5 so i used that. a heavy dumbell makes me a little nervous as my hands get sweaty

4 rounds
scaled the kb swings to what i had all else as rx'd. kept the pace at just below 8:00 mile for the 800's. all kb swings unbroken. need to get a heavier bell. pull ups were broken into sets. mostly good long rep sets though.
just couldn't get that 5th round. ran out of gas and out of time. last set of pullups took a little time. did 15, then rested and did 10 and 5. argh.

this was good stuff. just the kind of long met con i needed. man these are a serious effort. no letting off on these. power all the way thru. big fun!

not sure whats on tap for the weekend. like to take the mountain bike out for a bit. we'll see
