Day 77

Wow. TIRED!

Ran 1.25 miles to warm up.

WOD was

 AMRAP in 12 minutes of:
150 Wall ball (had to do thrusters)
90 Jump rope
30 Pull ups (assisted with green band)

Finished with .75 miles jogging. Sometimes I really hate working out!

Day 75

We're almost there! Yippe! I had a bit of a carb fest over the weekend, so now I feel fat and want to really be stringent about the last two weeks of this challenge. I am formulating a plan of what to do when this is over.
I think I will continue to do no wheat during the week and just have it on the weekend and no sugar. Those two things will definitely help me see more results.  I might have to add the snacking before bedtime back in though, as I LOVE having popcorn at night with the hubby while we watch TV shows.

So let's see. I don't even know when I last posted.

Today I did:

5 rounds of:

Run 400 Meters
15 overhead squats - 20lbs

12:25 I then ran a total of 3.25 miles.

Sunday I ran a 10K in 45:52. - not awesome but good enough.

Saturday I did this WOD.

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

5 Push ups
10 1 leg squats alternating each round. (HARD)
15 BSU

I did 15 + Push ups, squats and 5 BSU.

Ran 4.5 miles doing quarter mile sprints at 9 - 9.5, with quarter mile recoveries at 7.5 & 8 between. Total of 6 rounds of that then the rest running at a gentle pace to finish out.

Didn't exercise Friday. Too tired.

Day 71

Here we are with only 19 days to go. I must say the results of this 90 day challenge haven't been amazing, or drastic, but I haven't been TOTALLY strict and I am pretty happy with the progress I've made. I will probably just do it again after this is over.

So I ran on the weekend like normal, worked out on Monday.

5 Rounds of:
Run 800 Meters
5 KTE
50 Push ups

It was hell. I finished in 28:20. I ran at 8.5 and 8.6 and then did incline pushups.

My back went out a couple weeks ago and I'm still dealing with that. GRRR!

Then Tuesday was off.

Wednesday I ran.
The WOD was run a mile. I haven't run a mile for time in forever, so I was interested to see how fast I could go.

6:25! SO jazzed by that number. It was on the treadmill, but typically I am faster outside. I will be doing it outside this summer to see what my real time is.

I also ran a total of 4.25 miles.

TODAY!

So todays WOD was.

AMRAP in 8 mins of:

10 DL - 20lb
15 Box Jumps
15 DL - 30 lbs
15 BJ
20 DL - 40lb
15 Bj
25 DL - 50lb
15 BJ
30 DL - 60lb
15 BJ
35 DL - 70lb
15 BJ

I finished to 5 Box Jumps on the last round. Not too bad. Then I ran 2.5 miles. I also only had a 14" box so it wasn't as hard as it should have been. And I did 65lbs instead of 60lbs because of the weight situation.

Day 64

Wow. so tired. We've been doing a lot of running WODs this week.

Today in between Jackson pooping in his under and peeing in his potty, I did this WOD

4 Rounds for time of:
Run 200 meters
11 Thrusters - 25 lbs
Run 200 Meters
11 Push press - 25 lbs
Run 200 Meters
11 Bench press - 35 lbs

I did it in 17:10, though after the first round I had to stop the timer to take care of the poop in the unders. Then I finished. Ran on a 9.0 the whole time and felt pretty good.

Ran half a mile warm up, then a mile after and another quarter to cool down.

Day 65

Wow. What. A. Day. I didn't fall asleep last night or this morning really, until around 5 and then got up at 8. SO tired! I HATE hormones! They SUCK!  Anyway, I did actually work out, because I thought it would make me feel better. Which it did.
Todays WOD.

AMRAP in 20 minutes of:

10 Push Ups
5 DL - 85 lbs
8 Push press - 20 - I did the first 4 rounds with 35 lbs.

The push ups were split between boy push ups, incline pushups and girl push ups when I couldn't actually do any more push ups.

I did 17 Rounds + Pushups and 1 DL.

10 Months PP

Woot! 10 months ago I had a little tiny baby! She's the best little girl a mama could wish and pray for!


Eating: Doing pretty good with the 90 Day Challenge. I'm on day 63 and even though it's not on the challenge yet, I am going to cut out bread and wheat products for the next 27 days. I want to see more progress in my belly and I know that this works really well for me.

Exercise: Still doing the Crossfit/HIIT WODs  and running. I am definitely getting faster and stronger, though some WODS still make me feel out of shape and BLAH! BUT I did run a 10K in 45:03 and a 5K in 21:21 this month so I am feeling pretty good about that. My plan is to continue and continue and continue etc...

Life: Well, other then the stomach bug that my whole family has had, (Emma just got it last night) we are doing really well. Looking forward to spring and summer. It's going to be EPIC! In other words FUN! I won't have a tiny baby or a whinny two year old and I won't have to feel fat and flubbery all summer either. THANK GOD!

Day 63

Yippee! Day 63! Yesterday I took the day off. Too tired after work to face a million burpees and clean squats.

Todays WOD:

5 rounds of:
Run 800 meters
25 burpees

HARSH! - 31:09 I kept the treadmill between 8 and 8.3 MPH the whole time and just forced myself to run that fast even though I didn't have any AIR!

There was no speeding up the burpees. I HATE THEM! I would do ten and then rest ten seconds and then do a couple more and gasp and wheeze and then do some more.

Day 61

Yes, I missed many days, but with kids and hubby sick and me still not feeling great, I didn't feel like blogging.
I sill exercised five days last week despite the stomach bug.

Todays was:

5 rounds of:

Run 1000 meters (1K)
30 Hip raises
30 BSU

29:13

I was pretty happy with that time despite the times of some of the other ladies on the site. I was running a good 7 min mile pace and that is what I wanted to do, so good for me.

I will do my 10 Month PP post tomorrow night when my DH goes to play hockey.

Day 54

Todays WOD was such a relief!

2 rounds SLOWLY of:

20 Body Surfers - (supermans with knees bent)
15 Hip Raises
10 On leg squats - leg behind on a chair
50 BSU

I ran 3 miles in about 24:30. It was a terrible run and I felt sick most of the way through it. Oh well.

Day 53

Yesterday I ran a 5K PR. 21:21! Yeah! It was hard and hurt, but I did it. And I did 50 push ups in 2:30 Not great, but they were all boy push ups and boy incline push ups. NO MORE GIRL PUSH UPS!

Today I ran a 10 K in 46:29 - Which wasn't fast but it hurt and was about all I could do today.
