Friday 3/10/17
So we are now more than half way done with the 2017 Opens. Note: **Sheila and I have not died.
For 17.2 we apparently misread the workout which resulted in me submitting a score that was double what my actual score should have been.(oops) The workout was really hard. I actually felt nauseous, but I got through 4 rounds and was feeling pretty happy.
Then I got a very sweet text from Sara saying “Um, How many rounds did you get in the workout? I think your score may be wrong.” I’m sure she was thinking I know this is wrong, there is no fucking way you got 140 reps! She, of course, is too nice to ever say that tho. 😉 As it turns out, Sheila and I never switched from hanging knee raises to pull ups. So……my real score was 78, which is really kinda close to 140 🙂
And that brings us to today. Workout #3. The thing was written like some secret NASA scientific formula! It took him longer to write it out than it took me to do the damn thing.
But…something big happened today. Sheila and I did the Open workout with other people! Whaaaat? Admittedly, it was by accident, but still. We went to the Wood planning to do it in the corner by ourselves while everyone else took class. But surprise, the whole class was doing 17.3…together.
I wasn’t happy. I immediately felt anxious and uncomfortable. But the real surprise was that we actually liked doing it with the group. It was a lot of fun! And guess what? No one cares what wts we use or if we do scaled or RX. or how many rounds we get. Hmmmm…. 🙂
We’re planning to do the last 3 with the Friday morning group.
