I was outside at 4AM digging out the driveway apron from the nice dump the plows put in it. I just keep mounding the snow higher and higher. I will have the biggest snow blower I can get by next year. My days of using a shovel are coming to an end.

Made it to Crossfit at 6A. Kelly, Angie, Eric, Tomas and Dave with Brian coaching. No Jerry today.

Prior to class starting I did my 5 ring dips for Brian to I meet my January goal, even though I needed the assistance of a rubber band to actually perform the movement. Still a big improvement from the first of the month.

I did 100 more box dips for the last day of the challenge bringing my total to 2,280. I won the challenge by having the most done which means I get to pick the 3000 challenge for February. Unfortunately I did not make the 3000 total. There is $20 gas card award for getting to 3000. Trying to come up with what to do for February. I would like it to be Kettlebell related. Perhaps we will do swings.

For our WOD we did “Cindy”. As usual I was exhausted but I think part of the issue was the shoveling I did prior to class and the pain pill I took for my back. I did set a new PR (personal record) of 15 which is not much but a big improvement over when I started.

Previous “Cindy” PR’s”
August 3, 2008 = 10
October 31, 2008 = 14
January 30, 2009 = 15

So, even though progress is slow, I am going in the right direction.

Fight Gone Bad 5
What is a baby boomer?
People born between (and including) 1946 and 1964. After American soldiers returned home from World War II in1946, the United States experienced an explosion of births (hence the name baby boom) that continued for the next 18 years, when the birth rate began to drop. In 1964, baby boomers represented 40% of the population, which means that more than one third of the population was under 19 years of age. In the 1990s, approximately 76 million people in the United States were born in the baby boom years, representing approximately 29% of the country's population. Since baby boomers make up such a sizable portion of the consuming public, their spending habits and lifestyles have a powerful influence on the economy.
