This past week marked the kick off of the CrossFit Open (read why I signed up HERE) and I got to do my first Open WOD at an event for 50 States In A Year. To be expected it was definitely a rough one, made worse by the fact that my hands tore pretty bad after the first part but I finished and am really proud of how I did.
Obviously I’m not looking to compete in the Games but I am looking to do my best, step outside my comfort zone and have a lot of fun! And that’s exactly what I did!
On another note, running still isn’t easy for me right now but I’m happy that I’ve been better about incorporating more of it back into my workouts this past week. A tough 3 miler and a bootcamp workout sandwiched between two – 1 mile runs. Progress, it’s all about the progress.
Let’s get to it, shall we?

Now tell me – how were your workouts this week? What inspiration do you need to get through this next week?

Nice work, missy! Have a great weekend!
Thanks, girl!
Nice work with 15.1! Man, get those hands taken care of because we have more bar work to do now with 15.2!
No kidding!! I hope 15.3 is a bit easier on my hands… 😉
So crazy you signed up for the open!! Did Sam sign up too??
No, not with her shoulder… 🙁
