it's funny how currently everything in my life feels stagnant. i don't enjoy my job (the event job), i'm sick of dating, the fall weather somewhat depresses me and the only thing i really look forward to now is training. i'm so glad i have that in my life. it's the one time in the day when i actually forget about everything, my lame job, annoying event clients, stupid asshole men, and just pretty much everything that pisses me off. i am at peace when i do crossfit, and i'm so happy when i am in the gym ( if only one idiot could disappear, but that's besides the point). if i could workout all day, i'd always been in a great mood and feeling like i can accomplish anything. sigh. i guess i'll figure it out someday. until then i'll virtually shovel myself out of this hole i am in.

pre: wux1
post: wux1 + med ball clean practice
comments: wow that wod was fun, i enjoyed the 'virtual shoveling' it was tough, but interesting. fried my grip and shoulders. i have a funny story too, the night before when i was done training my clients i'm watching the virtual shoveling video in the trainer office. one of my fellow trainers (bodybuilder style for 20+years, one of the nicest guys ever) came over and 1/2 jokingly says, wow crossfit stole my exercise. ha. he does some sort of 'virtual shoveling' with his clients but a bit different. anyway, i see him today doing chest press on the nautilus machine and ask him to try this wod with me. he agrees, does it with 45# plate and quits after the 25 rep round saying his heart was beating really fast. :-) when we are done he comments, 'girl you have some endurance'. love it, gonna convert another one. sometimes as annoying as it can be i love working in a regular gym.
food: food has been normal, just super hungry, ate an extra zone bar in the middle of the night. still waking up starving around 3am every night this week. blah.
