Team Stoneway took a field trip down to Maple Valley Crossfit for their grand opening and had a great time! Luckily I had a great partner to motivate, challenge and encourage me. It was great to get into another box and see the level of athleticism around the area.

WOD

In teams of 2:

walking lunges with #25/#35 plate overhead (when both partners are on the line start burpees)

20 burpees as a team

walking lunges back to start line

20 burpees

60 pullups (as a team, 1 person working at a time)

80 squats (as a team, 1 person working at a tim)

100 cal row

12:30

So many things to be proud of in the workout and so many things to work on. We came in 2nd place overall the teams, about 16 total, and were only 2 seconds behind the 1st place team, which was my coach. It was great to compete with him and feel like I could actual provide a very tiny bit of competition.

I also realized I hate rowing, never done it in a workout before, only for warm ups, and now I know what I need to work on. My chest was burning and I felt like vomiting for like an hour after. Overall it was a great day.

After I got home I continued my training and went for a 13.4 mile bike ride and swam a little practicing what I learned from my lesson on Friday. I thought I'd be a lot more tired than I was but I emptied my Camelbak and loaded up on protein when I got home. I think that helped.

I went to a friends going away party after that and I was only able to eat fruit. It really made me miss chips and beer.

Friday

REST

Had swim lessons, they really helped my form and breathing. Still not comfortable in the water but I'm making headway. I did max pull ups too, got to 16, 1 more than the last time I tried. I also am still at 1 1/2 unassisted pull ups.
