Hello ladies! I did not have time to check in yesterday. I went to a CF class in the morning. We did a 30 minute EMOM (every minute on the minute) workout, which consisted of 5 movements and a rest, for a total of 5 rounds: 10 cal row, 6 burpees over the box, 10 DB snatches, 15 sit-ups, 10 overhead walking lunges (holding #20 DB overhead. . . after 2nd round, I went to 15#) then a 1 minute rest and repeat. I was a hot, sweaty mess.
After class, I changed in the bathroom and sped down to DS's baseball game. They won and are in the semi-finals for the tournament. They have won all four games and have 38 runs total, 8 runs allowed. His first game is at 10 today. If they win, they advance.
After the game, I took my younger DS and my dad to this beach that has a one-mile pedestrian path for runners and bicycles. We took our bikes and rode 4 miles, and then we hung out at the beach and even went in the water. Of course, it was cold, but it felt amazing. Cannot wait for summer to officially be here.
I am not feeling very motivated to run today, but I might try to get in a few miles this morning before the game.
I will bbl with personals,
Kristin

Hi everyone,
DH and I did Day 69: AAA - arms, abs, a$# this morning. Just getting around to post.
Been sitting in the hospital with my walking partner/friend. She called me she needed help with her husband, he couldn't walk on his own anymore. He had 3 strokes in the past. She was very scared about her husband. My husband and I stayed in the hospital with her until they released him. Followed them home and make sure he got into his house without passing out. IMO, he should have stayed in the hospital. I am beat sitting in the hospital for over 6 hours. The doctors don't think it's his heart. He is getting an MIR tomorrow in a different town. My friend is new in the area and doesn't know her way around. I probably will go with them to the hospital for the MRI. I pray the doctors are right. They don't think it's his heart. The think it's vertigo.
Debbie - we live in a beautiful area. Lots of trails, waterfalls. You name it. Your yoga class sounds wonderful.
Kirstin - you are doing great with your workouts. Missing a day with your runs will not hurt. Have fun at the game.
I will be back tomorrow. Trying to rest for a bit.

Hi,
Today I went to the gym and did a stair master workout. We also went to my in-laws for a bbq. There pool may have a leak not able to use it till the pool people figure it out. It would have been too cold for me
Belinda - That is so nice you and DH are helping out your friends. It does get so tiring being in the hospital so long. Your town sounds beautiful. I’ve heard some of the yoga instructors talk about retreats they have at the Gorge in West Virginia. They say it is beautiful. Are you familiar with that?
Kristin - It sounds like you had a very fun and active weekend! The bike ride and swim sounded like fun too. You are very brave the water is so cold, but I bet it is good for you. I hope your ds’s team won.
Goodnight

Hey guys. Went to CF yesterday. We did an AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) 15 minutes: 10 slam balls, 10 sit-ups with weighted slam ball, 10 alternating lunges. I used a 20# ball and got in 10 rounds. I was a sweaty beast. Today I did a fast 5.5 mile run before the thunderstorms arrived. I finished just in time. I got in my car and it started raining, lol. my pace was 8'48 per mile. Not too shabby. Felt good.
Tomorrow is a rest day for me. I am going to a retirement party for this crazy gym teacher in my building. She is an incredible, strong-minded person and I will miss her. Things at work have been pretty bad. The morale in my building is so low. We all plan on drinking and dancing. I will go to work with a bit of a hangover most likely. I plan on letting loose tomorrow night! Good thing I am giving a test on Friday, haha!
Belinda- 9 days left for you! You are killing it! I am so sorry to hear about your friend and her husband. Strokes are scary and can be so debilitating. Sending a prayer their way!
Deb- I saw on the news that tornadoes touched down in NJ. Parts of NY and NJ are under tornado warning tonight too! Stay safe! The sky is black over here and the rain is falling, but no thunder or lightning yet.

Hi,
Today I did Muscle Max upper body premix. I thought I would make it home before tonight's storm but it started earlier and was in it for 10 min. Not too bad, but we are expecting more storms later in the evening tomorrow too My ds's gf town was hit with a tornado, it wasn't too bad TG.
Belinda - Great job with your workout! You live in a big state LOL.
Kristin - Your CF workout sounded tough but fun I thought with the new principal things would have been better for you this year. You deserve to have fun and let loose tomorrow
Goodnight

Good morning,
D72 TB Core is done.

Kirstin - thanks about my friends husband. I talked to her yesterday, she said he is slow but doing better Not sure what to think of it. Yeah, I am almost done with 80 Day's. Did you order Cathe's new Step Boss (or whatever it's called? I love the looks of your workouts. They look very tough and fun. Have fun tomorrow. You deserve it
Hope you all having a great day and workout.

Hey guys. Well, Thursday the retirement party was amazing. We drank, we danced, we drank some more, we danced some more. I don't know how I managed to get to work Friday and be productive, but I did it. . . lol. I recovered Friday. No way was I doing a workout. Saturday I went for a run, but I only got two miles in. I just didn't feel well. Today I did a double-dose. CF and a 3-mile run. I'm back at it, baby! The lesson I learned is when it is time to really train for the marathon (July), I cannot drink like that. I shouldn't drink like that regardless, I know. We had such a blast though!
Deb- I had such high hopes for the new principal. However, as union rep, I have caught him lying to my face 3 times. I didn't tell him I knew he was lying, but I did. I hate liars, honestly. If you are a liar, you cannot be trusted with. . . anything really. It is such a poor quality to have as a leader. Besides the lies, the students in our building are out of control. Tons of fights, tons of disrespect. . . no discipline. After one fight a month ago, a boy in my 7th period class said to me, "Mrs. A we have too much freedom here. It's not good." When does a 12-year-old complain about freedom?!?!? We have repeat offenders who o whatever the hell they want and nothing happens to them. It is awful. I feel like we are becoming like the school in the Joe Clark movie, Lean on Me. I have 13 years to go to get my full pension. I don't know if I can do it.
Belinda- I am not ordering anymore dvds or workouts. I never do them anymore. I was contemplating selling my collection. I don't know. . . I am addicted to running and Crossfit now. I will always be thankful to Cathe for helping me get fit. There was something about the older dvds that the newer ones just don't have. Not sure if it's the crew or the music. . . the magic is gone for me if that makes any sense.
BBL,
Kristin

Hi everyone,
Rest day for me today.
Debbie - almost done!! Not sure what I will do next? I have a few day's left to decide, lol. Hope you got a good night sleep.
Kirstin - I agree with everything you said about not buying anymore workout dvd's and there was something about her older dvd's. I can't remember the last time I did a dvd? I haven't bought a Cathe dvd since Fit Tower, I regarded buying them. Still haven't done them. Can't get myself to do them. As you know, I have preordered her last few series, but always end up canceling, lol. Who knows what it is? Crew and music....maybe both? I love BBO. So many amazing instructors and lots of different variety. Once I am done with 80Day I will run through my dvd's. If you really want to sell your dvd collection, do it now. DVD's are not worth anything anymore if you sell them from what I have seen. If I where you I hold on too them. Which one are you selling? Sorry about the new principal. I hate liars too. Sorry about the kids in your school That's horrible you can't do anything about it. They know you can't.
I will be back tomorrow.

Hi,
Today I ended up taking another rest day. I alternated cooking with computer work but happy I'm done now
June should be an easy month for me so will really concentrate on eating better and working out.
Belinda - You are so organized and motivated so I'm sure you will come up with something for June
Kristin - DH's gym turned 1/2 CF and the other 1/2 weight training/cardio. He said the people who just do CF love it and are so dedicated to it. He has too many injuries to try CF. Your school situation is sad for both the teachers and students. If it gets too much could you transfer to another school? I'm sure it would be hard it seems like you have a really nice relationship with your students. They would also miss you. I'm happy that you had so much fun at the retirement party!
Goodnight
