Nascar Sprint Cup 2009

Very recently I have taken a liking to NASCAR. I know very little about the sport other then it is cool. One day a few weeks ago I was flicking channels and I stopped on racing. The camera angle was track level and the noise was amazing. The surround sound of the speeding cars was great.

I have decided that I will follow #18 Kyle Busch until I learn more about this racing stuff. If anyone knows about racing please feel free to inform me of some of the finer points.

The last round just murdered me. I think I tried to game the last run
and when I went to the bar I was rocked. Had to take a large break
before I caught my breathe.

I took a little break last week as you may have noticed. I have an
excuse if you want to hear it! My soon to be brother in law returned
home from Afghanistan on Friday. Well 1 beer turned into another and
then those turned into shots. So I was sidelined for a bit.

Water Jerry Bar

Austere work WOD

5 rounds for time:
15x 95lbs power cleans
5x pull ups
10:22

My original intent was to lift something heavy today. However, once I
made it to the gym I realized I had forgotten my shorts. I walked back
the QM, filled 2 water jerry's with water and made a bar. I used vise
grips to hold the jerry's in place. I was a little difficult to keep
the bar balanced throughout but none the less it worked well enough.

The most difficult part about today was keeping my grip with the
slippery thin bar. My forearms were shot after.

Will try to post a picture.

Deadlifts were fast today. HSPU's were a little slow but still not too
bad. I was hoping for around 8 mins.

I have rings set up in the QM so I decided to put them to use. I will

Had a good talk with Sean B-H last night (over beers). I find it
motivating to read other Cfer's blogs and WOD posts. It is the sense of
community that drew me to start a blog in the first place. My WOD posts
have been influenced by and large by the mutual rivalry that Pat and I
had for many months. In fact, well over a year now. I am convinced that
the successes I have been fortunate enough to have are a direct result
of the encouragement and motivation that I find with this blog and
others like it. Cfer's ROCK!
Today's WOD was one of the ones that I needed to do to get a feel for
where I am in terms of "fitness". I had the same feeling today as I did
when I did this same WOD in almost half the time. Like Jerry's Blog
states: Never easier. Just faster.

BFT (Tire update)

BFT

13.2KM with 24KG pack.

Did this at a walking pace. Not too hard at all. Maybe I should wait
until tomorrow to say that.

Tires are just sitting on a new commercial development. North of
Fanshawe at Hyde Park. Near the Boston Pizza and BMO.

Maybe I'll get back to Navy Seals Workouts?

Saw this pile of tires just north of my place. Thought about all the Crossfitters out there who would love one of them.

CFWU x 3

10 mins on treadmill.

The idea is to get back into CF. I have abandoned my SS journey. My goals have changed, so must my training. The CFWU today was okay, I guess. The push ups and dips felt good however, the pull ups were a joke. By that I mean they were hard. All sets of 10 were broken.

I love this Shit. As our lives change so do our challenges and the direction we pursue our own meaning of fitness.

Warm up was the dynamic one I showed a video of before. I really like how this gets me warm and loose.

Felt really good this afternoon. I was hoping for 445 and 190 but alas. Nada!
