Workout from HELL

4 rounds:
400m run
15 burpees

We were supposed to do this workout yesterday, but that never did happen. I took a 3 hour nap in the afternoon instead. When we talked about this workout, we discussed going to a nearby track and doing it there. So today when we finally got around to working out, we headed to the track as planned. The only problem is that yesterday it was cloudy and fairly cool (85*) which is crazy for this time of year. Today, on the other hand, is much warmer- 95* with 50% humidity. We should have just gone to the gym to do this workout. It was soooo muggy and hot out, I could hardly breathe. The very first round right off was terrible. The WOD from the CrossFit website actually calls for 6 rounds and 25 burpees but there was no way.

My time = 18:34

I probably could have done this so much faster had the weather not been an issue. When I was done, it was Michael's turn to go but I had to go sit in the car with the a/c on max in order to cool down. I sat there and closed my eyes and focused on slowing down my breathing. It sounds crazy but I was just so hot!

Eating like crap last night probably didn't help either. We went to The Cheesecake Factory for dinner and I had the best salmon I've had in a long time. It was probably 3 decks of cards in size as opposed to just 1 (portion size for protein) but I don't care- I gobbled up every bit of it. And then of course we had to have cheesecake (yes, it was a requirement, don't argue with me) and we got the reese's pieces one with layers of cheesecake, peanut butter cups, chocolate cake, and peanut butter. Umm... YUM! That's all I have to say about that!

So, I got the workout done although it was not pretty!
Until tomorrow,
