Whole Life Challenge

I've sort of gotten back into working out. SORT OF. Work has been crushing me lately (new job + extra responsibility = working late) so I've been missing my 6:30PM CF class because frankly, I can't get there on time.

This past week consisted of doing the WOD at my house (thank goodness my husband was diligent in building his workout equipment collection and it's all in the garage) on Monday, taking Tuesday off because I didn't get home from work until almost 8, RUNNING (yes, running) on Wednesday as fast as I could for 15 minutes after a quick burpee and kbs warm up, Thursday off, Friday doing the FTC WOD in the garage (it kicked my butt), Saturday running again, and today - who knows at this point. I guess that is better than nothing, but I am remarkably weaker than I was back in May and June when I was so CF inspired.

I am doing two things to re-motivate myself. The first is a team CF competition in 2.5 weeks at CF Boro at Georgia Southern. I joined a team with a friend from work since he needed a 3rd girl to round out his co-ed team. The second is the Whole Life Challenge. I need to find a way to be more diligent, be held accountable, and to stay engaged and motivated. It's an 8 week deal and I'm trying to sucker other friends into doing it too so that I have more support. My gym members are joining too, so hopefully I can get some help from them too.



As a final note, garages are 10 degrees hotter than outdoor temperatures here in the summer in Savannah. Realistically, that makes for a TOUGH time doing WODs in the garage (I'm too shy to go out in my front yard and do them). It was 88 degrees outside when I did the WOD on Friday. The temp reading in the garage was 97. I mean, I at least deserve some props for sticking that one out.... right?
