CrossFit at 6AM. Brett, Will, Aaron, Eric Joe, Steve, Brandon, Tom (on Tom Time) and Stacia with Brian coaching.

The pain in my heel is back full force and the stress is reaching high levels with Debbie’s sister and now Mom in the same hospital. What was to be a simple out patient surgery has become more complicated and Mom is still in the hospital under observation until they can get her stabilized after her surgery. Hoping that she comes home today.

I also dreamed about food last night and eating brownies to see what I would feel like with all the sugar. This might have been triggered by a discussion of brownies that my sister and I had while waiting in the hospital lounge.

Needless to say it was a relief to find out I had not eaten brownies when I woke up.

My pull up motivation was really low this morning so I only got a few done.

For the hour of CrossFit I was able to forget most of this and focus on the activity.

We worked on max shoulder press in teams for the first part of the workout. Brandon and I worked together and we did a good job. Looking back over the results I think I should have started with 95 rather than 75 pounds. My heart was not really in it this morning so I don’t know if that would have made a difference or not in the final result.

Eating—On track. Last evening at the hospital I got a container of cantaloupe and honey dew melon to eat and avoided any bad stuff. That was a good thing.

What hurts today—Really disappointed with my heel, the pain is back just like before. Pondering what to do next. Was really stiff for the burpees this morning. I think part of this pain is emotional and stress related, reducing my ability to work through it. Looking for an upturn soon.
