Day 2

Post on the run.. I am on my way to crossfit day 2. Absolutely crapping myself. Will post more later. Please please please no more burpees. I did a hundred and five yesterday and am still feeling the embarrassment.

The day after...

After many deep breaths (read: hyper-ventilation), 1x fight with boyfriend, and 1x a very very strong skim latte (yes I am a lactose-paleo sorry but whatever), I made it into my box (crossfit BodyM - look it up). I deliberately put off looking at the WOD on whiteboard until 1 minute before start time, so I couldn’t chicken out.

Yay no f-ing burpees. I could have kissed Jase the box owner. Brilliant. I can do this. WOD: 2-4-6-8-10 Hang DB C+P. and in between:

10 KB Swing
20 Push up
30 Air squat.


Looks alright hey? I had to have a bit of tutorial with the Hang DB C+P as being a technical movement and me being massively uncoordinated this posed with a slight issue of wtf. I went through the movement in slow motion. After almost knocking myself out a few times with the dumbbells, and flinging my arms around whilst bouncing my legs simultaneously, I managed to get enough technique to proceed with the WOD.


Did alright too. I upped my KB weight from 8kg to 12kg, and did crappy girl push-ups, but didn’t finish last. Which, for me, means I did bloody excellently. I also finished before my boyfriend, f-ing awesome. Not that I am competitive much, but hey bragging power and what not. Sorry babes if you are reading this - I know you did RX so are still heaps better than me. In these early stages I NEED EVERY GLORY.


After the WOD, I had to get take away. Bloody crap I know but forgot to take out meat (#firstworldproblem). Ordered a roast beef roll sans roll, and the takeaway chick pretty much had a mental break down. Her "What no roll?" me: "nope", her: "em but I can only sell that with a roll'. Me: "just go through the motion, darl, and don’t put it in a roll, and put it in a container instead, I won’t tell your boss". Her: "em em em ... ok". Me: (thoughts: f-ing hell, I am going to smash this chick right now... just give me the f-ing meat...) "ok". Note to self: the meat was shit. I think I caused the takeaway chick her job. I will never eat that shit again. Mantra: I will eat a banana in times of need. The world does not know how to deal with non-grain eaters right now.. Until they do without losing it, I will fend for myself.


I can no longer raise my arms above my head and have crappy hair today as a result, but who cares I am elite. xoxo
