How many of you listen to or have listened to CrossFit Radio?
I try and listen to it regularly.
I got a new PR tonight.
Nothing like taking your old 1 rm and doing it for a triple.
3 Unbroken thrusters at 225 lbs. I have made so much progress since 4/1/12 .
Every once and a while CrossFit humbles you when you least expect it…
Todays WOD seemed pretty harmless.
4 RFT
8 Hang squat clean thrusters
12 Burpee box jump overs
16 KB Swings
I was on round three doing my box jump overs when it happened. Fatigue had lead me to doing what was basically one legged box jumps.
I went to jump on to the box and in the process my right leg missed entirely while my left foot caught the box. I hit my shin on the box and somehow ended up landing on my left side rolling my ankle a bit.
I got up limped around a little and hi fived my coach. He saw the whole thing. Unfortunately he said because I was limping that was the end of the workout for me tonight.
I waited a little while and worked on my strict press. I did 5x5 @ 135.
Just a minor setback. I’m gonna go hard tomorrow like it never happened.
Every morning in Africa a Gazelle wakes up, and knows it must run faster than the fastest Lion or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up, and knows it must run faster than the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It does not matter whether you are a Gazelle or a Lion, when the sun comes up, you’d better start running.
I am having a rough day, so I am reminding myself why I share this very private journey so publicly. If I inspire just one person that is enough for me.
I love this.
