Got back from vacation recently and decided to jump back in to the WODs from the main Crossfit Web site. I'm going to run a day or two behind the main site as well. After all, I need that anticipation and fear to get me motivated.

Last night I did a Crossfit Total. Here's how it turned out.

Press - 110 - Best press for me yet. I felt good throughout.
Squat - 180 - A bit off from my best effort. I had sore hamstrings that bugged me.
Dead - 265 - An okay effort. I wanted more, but again the hamstrings bothered me.

Total = 555

My hamstrings bothered me becuase I did a few Crossfit type workouts on my vacation. So, what workout killed the hammies? Sprints... in the sand.

I measured out a course (about 100 yards) and did 10 sprints. Ouch!! Then, part of the reason I was still sore was the return drive. Nine hours in a car without stretching sore muscles really doesn't help. However, I know I can do better next time.

Tonight will most likely be a martial arts class instead of a Crossfit WOD. Normally I have my class at lunch, but had scheduling issues today. Tomorrow should be fun, though. What could be more fun than running, kettlebells and pull ups? =D
