Every Wednesday, I wake up a little nervous! Our Wednesdays at the box are the hell day. Usually when the Filthy 50, 300, FGB, 70/60/50/40/30/20/10, etc. happen. Coach does not post our wods before hand, so there is always the WTH feeling waking up and walking into it. We haven't done pullups in the past 5 wods, so I am sure whatever the wod is, it will include that.
I behaved last night, staying away from all beer and wine and eating Zone all day. Slept from 10 to 6! Woo hoo! If I would only do that every day. I am (I hope, I hope, I hope) after this Labor Day weekend.
Yesterday, I put on my first 8 skirt on in many, many years! I couldn't wear it in public. It flattened my still large ass almost making it the size of my son's bike's wheel. The seams might split open if I sit down bouncing that large ass out too! But I got in it! Also, got in a jean skirt my sister gave me from Banana Republic size 8. Ass looked the same, and I broke a sweat getting it off. Wonder if by the end of September, I could be in these without looking like the flat bike tire ass. That is my goal for now.
My coach and a fellow athlete are going to hike Mt Ranier! They leave Saturday for Washington state. He should be putting a World Camp CrossFit flag on top Wednesday. Super proud of them! The athlete was training one day with a snorkel in his mouth rowing. I had wanted to ask Coach WTH, but then I didn't know if this was another Crossfit thing I didn't know about. After hearing that Warren was hiking the mountain, I felt relieved.
Off to eat my yogurt and take vitamins and fish oil. The fish oil makes me taste fish throughout my workouts. Just started back on that on Monday, so I am hoping it will stop. If not, I will have to stop the fish oil. Another random thought too, if it weren't for my yogurt for breakfast and the cheesestick with my deli meet wrapped around it for most of my lunchs, I might could try Paleo. I am going to have to Zone for the next couple of month, and read lots of people that made the switch to get inspired.
Our news just announced that we have had the hottest summer (avg temp of J, J, and A of 86.8) since 1902. It is the first summer I have exercised throughout the summer. I knew it was hot on that asphalt just didn't know it was the hottest. I had gotten a little down about how slow I was doing some of the wods, but now I am hoping that the heat played into that. How I wish I had logged my wods earlier.
Just wanted to mention that you should look into the "primal" style of eating. It's not as strict as Paleo, in that it allows for consumption of dairy, as long as you aren't lactose intolerant. Check out Mark's Daily Apple -- the same author who writes that blog wrote the book "The Primal Blueprint". I'm just getting finished reading that, and really like what is has to say. They're even doing a Primal Challenge starting just after Labor Day.

As a coach I can't stress enough that you should always always always log your WODs!!! I'm glad you're seeing how important that is now. :)
