3/1

Wow, March already!?  Didn't sleep well last night (I think it was workout out late and eating late that threw me off) so I went to the early morning workout.  Might as well if I'm not going to sleep right?  Plus even with the pre-sunrise wakeups, I have a good amount of energy within a few minutes of getting going.

"Nancy" (rowing for me, the cripple)
5 rounds
400 m row
15 OHS

Came in at just under 20 minutes -- something like 19:45, but I started later than the rest of the class until we wrangled an erg.

Comments on this WOD: I tried to just be smooth and long on the row, not doing my usual mental coaching of "power 10"/5 off etc. because I knew it was going to burn out my legs, and OHS are challenging enough.  As a result I was somewhat slow -- I kept my eye on the clock and knew each round had to be 4 minutes to be finished in time.

I did the OHS at 65#, and only missed one rep.  Also had one failure to heave the bar overhead, but, I got it.  I worry about being about to get it up from behind my neck when the weight gets much heavier, though, without a jerk.  Very happy with my OHS performance though, most rounds I got 8-9/6-7 - didn't do any unbroken though I probably could have the first round.  It's weird to remember that just because you are starting to shake, doesn't mean you are going to fail.

Also I am terribly proud of Cynthia, my teammate for Superfit DC and another awesome nutrition program person and friend, who got through the workout at the same weight I did!  I was seriously impressed.  Two strongest ladies in the class, thanks.

Saved a little Chipotle last night for a pre-morning-WOD snack.  This was a bad idea.  Chipotle is not a pre-WOD stnack.

I love color and texture in salad.  It's really the most awesome part of eating a bowl of raw veggies.  Today I had 1/2 an avocado, chicken breast (with the dregs of a bottle of tessemae's ranch), beets, hearts of palm, asparagus, radishes (tastes like spring!!), shredded carrots, tomatos, spring mix, and spinach.  Love love love.  Sad that there wasn't any fennel or arugula in the salad bar today though.
