More snow during the night.
My throat is very, very sore and I went back and forth about going to class this morning. Even on the way in I thought about turning around and going home.
The only good thing about the WOD today was that is was not a partner or team workout. I did not want someone else to be depending upon me this morning.
Today’s WOD was a repeat of a WOD we did back on November 1, 2010. My time then was 43:15, this morning I got 45:17. I was just happy with the fact the I completed it because I was ready to quit every single minute but something kept pushing me to complete. The one thing I don’t do is quit.
I could tell I was really sick when I started to puke after the workout. This morning is the first time that has happened and I hope it does not happen again.
I don’t know at this point if I should have worked out or not. I lived through it so I guess it’s OK.
ONE YEAR AGO
CrossFit at 6AM. In the teens but no more snow overnight.
Prior to class worked on back squats and clean squats. The progress is very slow but doing long warm ups is the key.
Really had to push hard for this WOD. Rx’d weight for the dead lift was 225, I went 195. Pull ups and burpees both sucked.

Went to Cleveland last night for a new call center deployment. Everything went smooth and I was out of there by 8 and home by 9. Slept well without interruption and the alarm woke me up. That is always a good sign of a good nights sleep.
Free Saturday class tomorrow. Anxious to see how many people we get. An average size Saturday class is at least 20 now.
Eating—I packed food to take with me last night. I had cut up raw green peppers, carrots, almonds, grapes, a banana and an apple. Continuing my OCD on weighing in I checked this morning and down a solid two pounds. All I have to do now is hold onto that until Monday morning. If just a couple of us in the weigh in group can pull 1 or 2 pounds we will top 50 total pounds lost for the group.
What hurts today—Just sore and stiff, the usual.
One Year Ago—We were still digging ourselves out of the remains of a heavy snow storm this time last year when we did Cindy.
