07032019 – CrossFit & Swim

I went to the 5:30am CrossFit class at Solcana. It was hard to get up so early, but nice to get the workout in! The warmup/gymnastics was accumulating 15 strict toes to shoulder. I did sets of 3 and it took a little while, especially with the strict designation!

The MetCon was a 30 minute AMRAP! It included an Iron Madien Crawl (bear crawl and pulling the 80# sandbag the length of gym), 10 pullups, Goblet Carry to corner and back, 10 pushups, grass loop run, and then 1 minute rest! I tried the 70# kettlebell for the Goblet Carry and I was able to get it up, but obviously not able to walk with it! The 53# was pretty heavy and I decided to go with that, but wow was it harder than I thought it would be! I used a box for the pushups, after Murph I think that was a good call for the longer work session. The 1 minute rest was a nice addition! I did 4 rounds and 16 reps (so just into the pushups). That was a good burner!

Later in the afternoon we went with friends to Hidden Beach. There were 3 adults and 6 kids so we took turns playing/supervising the kids and doing some swimming. It was a little windy so there was some chop on the lake which got to be quite a bit. And outside of the swim area was a good amount of seaweed so that wasn’t ideal. I guesstimated 400 yards of swimming, no real clue though! We had fun watching the clouds roll in and out wondering if it was going to do anything or not!
