At The Drive-In:Metronome Arthritis
Strike this match and let loose the oven’s breath. Up the volume that flirts with the UHF. Swipe the magnets on the audio tape. These arsons, Of grand larceny. Keep running, keep running in place. Achilles tendon severed for the race. Quick to the throat, In this ink cartridge funeral. The marble caps lock, Zip code affiliate. You’ve got a run, On your pharmaceutical. You...
Day of Rest: October 27, 2010
Yesterday’s WOD was practicing handstands and 50 ninja flips with 10#. I did the ninja flips in 4:45. Then I went and ate a bunch of McDonalds and my tummy still hates me.
Other than that I have nothing left to write. I am extremely unmotivated. I need a mental health day to detox me and my brain. This weekend does not seem to offer that, BUT I AM GOING TO BE A TURTLE FOR HALLOWEEEEN. I...
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...
Grr, this is the last thing I need. I think….I DON’T GIVE A FUCK.
6am Monday WOD
Squat 5x5
135, 145, 150 (1) FAIL. My P.R is 165, this makes no sense…
WOD: AMRAP 12 minutes of 7 DB clean squats (35#) 7 push-ups, 200 meter run
I got 5 3/4 rounds. I just hate running in my vibrams, even though I am not getting sore from them anymore, so that means I am getting stronger?
Also if anyone knows anything about recovery drinks let me know!!! I am looking around to buy...

Highly Caffeinated
I have drank two sodas, I never drink caffeine. I want to run everywhere. I have like three pages left of a paper to write. I have to bike home, I have to walk to my bike first. I need lights on my bike. Good thing I don’t have the urge to call someone yet. I need someone to go out with on Halloweeeeen. :(

I win!
Pumpkin chocolate chip muffins are baking and the chuck tender is slooooow cooking, I love fall food.
I slept through my first class today, go me! But I made it to 6am crossfit, where I realized my wrist hurts from falling on it last Friday, that is double points for me. I am going to call Morgan, Nicole, and Wendy this week…..

Sundayyyyyyy: October 17, 2010
I ran a 10k this morning, it sucked. My time was 54: something, which I was not happy about, but maybe I should actually taper for these things? I mean I am paying for it so maybe I should try for some better results, hmmm? Then I went on a 45 mile bike ride, which mostly ruled. Then I instantly passed out and was a half an hour late to work. Also I didn’t eat before passing out, so waking...

Saturdayyyyyyyyyyy: October 16, 2010
I wore shorts today on a 30 mile bike ride. SHORTS!!! It’s the middle of October in Iowa, what is this madness! I am not complaining, just in shock. Tomorrow is the Run for the Schools 10k and hopefully another nice ride. Then I will go to work and finish alllll my homework….:(
This week I will hopefully make it to some triathlon team swimming practices and maybe a running one? Blah I...

October 15, 2010
So, yesterday’s WOD was 5 rounds of 20 box jumps, 20 sit-ups, 10 chin-ups, and 10 push-ups. My time was 14:42. I was beat by Jen, who is a super triathlete, I love competing against her.
The WOD today was “fallonyourfaceandthengetupandfinishNicole”. We did Nicole, I fell the second time going out to run, so I finished 7 rounds of running and 47 pull-ups, sorta weak. But I am...

High-School
“The first time I met you, I could tell that you were hilarious, maybe a little awkward, but a ton of fun, and worth getting to know. As we worked together and started to hang out more, I gained a genuine respect for you. Unlike most, or maybe even all of our friends, you stay true to yourself, and you avoid drama whenever possible. I though that was amazing. I found myself wanting to be...
Hydration
I need to hydrate.
I need to sleep.
I need to see Sarah.
I need to get some monies.
I need a hug from Morgan.
Sunday Funday
50 mile bike ride here I come. woohooo. Yesterday I learned that I may have a natural knack for swimming hahhaha, whatever that means. I learned how to be super graceful getting out of pools too and how to transition during triathlons. Needless to say I will be needing lots of practice learning how to make my body not knock over everything.

:o
I can literally feel my butt growing, after doing 100 m of walking lunges, 800 m run, and 100 air squats yesterday and then doing good mornings this morning I think it’s fair to say I won’t fit in any of my pants here pretty soon.
