Life Update

So I am officially done with winter semester! (as of Thursday evening) YAY!  I love being done with school.  Mainly for that instant stress relief.  Ever since school got out things have been amazing too!

After I finished my last test Thursday night,  which I'm pretty confident I aced ;], I zipped over to my place grabbed some things and then headed over to Midway to meet the family!  I love little family vacations!  I had a great time with the WHOLE family (a rarity these days for us all to be together).  Mike and Laci graduated and that was fun to go to as well.  Then we were all able to sit and relax in the condos, swim some, eat lots, and joke even more.  You know you're having a good time when security calls at 11:30 because they're "worried" about us.  No no, everything is fine, we're just really into this game! haha

This week has been pretty lazy.  It is my last week up in Utah for a while and I mainly stayed to work, but am only working like 3 days haha.

I had Monday and Tuesday off, so I decided that after 2-2 1/2 weeks I needed to get back on the Crossfit wagon.  Now I'm saying....OUCH!  I LOVE CROSSFIT, don't get me wrong, but boy o boy does it work me.  Just a little glimpse of what we've been doing lately.

Monday
Warm-Up
w/ partner (while one runs the other is doing something else)
200m run - air squats
200m run - crunches
200m run - air squats
200m run - crunches
Then after the warm up we had Strength
5x 5 Push Press
Then the WOD
4 Rounds
25 KBS (Kettle Bell Swings)
10 Strict Pull ups
400m run
I don't know what it was, but this killed me and I was probably the slowest one there, also I got confused and started doing a fifth round and didn't realize it until I got down to my 7th strict pull up on that set. DOH

Tuesday was a good day for me because I pushed myself in weight and I felt really good overall
Warm Up
400m run
15 yards of Toy Soldiers
10 Rapid Toe Touches
400m run
15 yards of Toy Soldiers
10 Air Squats
10 Rapid Toe Touches
Strength
7x2 Deadlift Linear
 (Linear - which is no increase in weight, pick a weight and stick with it)
WOD
AMRAP 15 Minutes
AMRAP = As Many Rounds as Possible
10 Power Cleans
10 Butterfly Sit Ups
10 Hand Release Push Ups
I barely finished 6 rounds with 3 seconds left!

Today (Wednesday) 
Worked until 4 
(no breakfast and no lunch = terrible idea!)

When it came to Crossfit, I almost didn't go haha
Warm Up
2 Rounds
250m row
15 Hand Release Push Ups
10 Air Squats (5 second pause at lowered stage)
Tricep Rolls (1 Minute Each Side)
Strength
5x3 Front Squat (Linear)
WOD
4 Rounds

10 Games Standard Box Jump (Men 30" Women 24")
40 Double Unders

Anywho, I am seriously considering doing my first Half-Marathon as well as the Tough Mudder in October.

I will be moving back to Vegas for a bit this weekend (YAY!), but may have something else in store, but I'll get more into that as it comes nearer.

Big Changes are coming my way! What what.
