Got to see Missy and Lorena leaving the 5:45 as I drove up for 6:30 this morning. Always good to start the day with hugs and friendly faces. And then I walked into a class of about 20 Army officers and Shawn. He looked concerned. He had already read the board. "It's like Fight Gone Bad but with burpees."..... Oh.

Aside from the knees-to-elbows, this actually ended up being a lot of fun. I have long arms but short legs, so the whole elbow thing isn't so much happening. More like knees-to-boobs. Perhaps I need to work on my swing....

While I would have loved to have gone with 65 lbs for the thrusters and SDHP, I chose 55 because my neck is still a bit iffy today. The nerve that's pinched isn't acting up as much, but this was one of those instances where I actually used my head and chose to play it safe. It's much, much better than yesterday, so I have full confidence that all will be back to normal by Monday. At least it better be.....Monday WOD's suck.

Breakfast:
eggs, bacon
black coffee
valencia orange

Lunch:
Rosemary lemon chicken breast, salsa. 'Twas good.

Dinner:
El Chapparal beef fajitas, guacamole, lots of salsa and a few bites of rice and beans. I don't have problems walking away from the rice and beans so a few bites are fairly safe for me. It's sugar that I do battle with, so I decided to forgo the margarita.
