Crossfit

285 Pound Back Squat!!!

I've been doing my very best to stay busy lately and so far my best option is the gym.  Last week we did "Elizabeth", "Diane", and "Fran" to prepare for the Metro Dash.  I have a new PR for Fran with a time of 8:42.  I was pretty excited about this because I was also extremely hung over from drinking with John the night before.
Team "Dropkick Burpees" is my running/workout team.  It consists of myself, Sean, Jesse, and Chris.  We competed in the Metro Dash on Sunday and placed 9th overall out of 250-300 teams.  We hoped to do better, but overall I am very pleased with our performance.  Today for our workout Jesse and I worked on max Back squats and hand stand push ups.  I hit a new PR for back squats with 285 pounds.  The photo above was taken as I was pushing up.  The 2nd portion of our workout was "Grace".... 30 reps of 135 pound clean and jerks for time.  Tonight must've been my night because I again hit a new PR here with a time of 5:40.
I'm miserable, I can't keep SCY off my mind, but I will never achieve my goals if I don't do my best to better myself and live "my" life.  I'm really enjoying all the time i'm putting into working out.  This is a hobby I don't every want to let go of.  I am focused.
