Warm up:
3 x 15 sit ups
3 x 15 push ups
3 x 15 pull ups

WOD:
3 rounds for time
40 push press (45 lbs)
30 squats
20 dips
30 singles- (jump rope)

This morning was TOUGH. Chris just pushed right thru those push presses like butter. I struggled with them. He finished in half my time (again.) Yea, yea...not apples to apples...whatever. Anyway...I went back and did it again tonight. Never done this twice in the same day. The things we do to make people happy. This was the WORST day to do it twice. Usually I'm amped by lunch and ready to run or something. Usually feel like I could do the WOD all over again by then. Rearin to go! But no today. When I finished this morning my arms were like jelly. Very useless. Couldn't even lift them up to the steering wheel without using the other as a lift. Then it turned out to be one of the crappiest days. Hey God...I wonder...how many more things are you gonna take away from me? Can this year get any worse????!!!! There's only a few days left. Why not just throw in another tragedy of some sort?

Anyway, going in a second time in a day...THIS day...was rough. BUT....somehow...it didn't seem quite as tough as this morning. I managed to shave off almost two whole minutes from the morning.

The thing I don't get though..is why, oh why are these other ladies doing prescribed...some have JUST started...and they are STILL kicking my butt. I mean, I understand that Chris is kicking me...(I'm gonna play the "weaker vessel" card as long as humanly possible), but the other ladies??! I GUESS Jessica finishing in like 10 minutes is acceptable because she's been quite the athlete for a number of years, but what about the others?

Whatever.

Maybe this just isn't for me.

I should probably re-think this whole mess.

I should probably re-think life in general.
