Wed, 4/17 -- Still on the road in WI
Warmup/Strength/WOD:
Today I thought I'd go early in the morning to avoid a lot of the stares, but I was surprised to find many ppl on the treadmills. But at least they were facing away so they didn't have to gawk as I did my thing. Even better, the exercise room wasn't in use, and I stole one of the aerobics step-ups to use as a box for jumping. :)
Tues, 4/16 -- On the road in WI

WOD:
Run 400m

5 Hang Power Cleans
10 Pushups
15 Air Squats
Then...
Run 400m
Doing CrossFit in GloboGyms is always challenging. Mostly because you have to make sure they have the equipment you want/need and because you have to have thick skin to avoid the weird looks that ppl give you when you're going at the wod full force. Folks are used to seeing a certain type of mannerism and action in a typical gym. Outside of that, and you get "the looks". You just gotta learn to ignore them and tell yourself that everyone is only wondering how on earth that little girl can pick up such heavy weight and WHOA! she looks like she's about to pass out. hehe I actually did have one guy ask me if I was doing ok when I bent over to look at my phone that was laying on the ground so I could see what the next movement was. I guess he thought I was light-headed or something. It was kind of him to at least check in on me!

98# HPC
Greg was working on OHS this evening as we left. On the way out, I told everyone to "have fun & see ya tomorrow!". I didn't mean for extra drama to be thrown in. Poor Greg, turns out he dislocated his shoulder in attempting PR#2 on OHS tonight. Bummer of a deal! On the bright side, I suppose his legs will get some really good wok now. Praying for you, Greg...

| Wowzers -- in Joey's defense, I'll say that I've seen some bugs crawling around the floor before. Perhaps she really did have ants in her pants. HA! |

Fri, 4/5 -- 13.5 Open WOD
Warmup/WOD:
Results:
Ok, this wod was only 4 min long. So once the 4 min was over, I decided to finish out at least 3 full rounds of the wod NFT. Then afterwards, for each C2B that Jax worked, I did an extra thruster, since I consider them my bane. It was good for both of us. We decided we'll work weaknesses like that more often. Sort of a 1-for-1 or X-for-X ratio. Misery loves company, after all, and at least we'll be making the best of that misery!!
Oh, AND because I've been so forgetful with pics lately, I made sure to get plenty this last time. For your viewing enjoyment:

Tues, 4/2
Warmup:
35# KB swings
50# SDHP
WOD:
I did 85# instead....
Results:
I visited the box that's a block south from where I work. I'd found out a couple of coworkers were members, so I decided I'd drop in sometime. Well today was the day! It's a nice big facility (4k sq ft), and they are looking at expanding by another 2k sq ft shortly. But with all the space, they still limit classes to 20 or less. I suppose I can see that since there's only one coach there at a time. I'll probably drop in again sometime....

9:38. 1st couplet, 75# BS in 2nd couplet --> not sure if he completed all 5 rnds...
Worked out with the future bro-in-law. I think I wore him out with this wod. It was a good one though; my legs and toosh were sore! As you can see from the pic above (featuring sis-in-law) we were visiting a gym back home. I guess that's the name of their weightlifting club. No weight lifters were in there though. We pretty much had the place to ourselves.
