Happy Labor Day!

Feeling great and energized after my run with Sarah. I was totally dying in the humidity and heat but what a great feeling when I was done. We ran for about 40 minutes which is a new personal record for me. Holy crap that was a great run! Thanks Sarah for getting me back on track and getting my head right.

9:30am-Chicken speedies, peach, 1/2 cup strawberries, 1/2 cup raspberries, 1/2 cup grapes, 15 almonds
12:30pm-Salad-spinach, tomato, peppers, mushrooms, broccoli, chicken speedies, nuts, peach and a few strawberries

I got caught up on lots of stuff today it was great. My husband has decided to get motivated again and head to the gym! I joined him for a bit of biking, stretching and abs while he pumped the iron. I'm excited for him to get back in the swing. When he works out he tends to eat better, which will ultimately help me stay on track as well.

Saturday

So yesterday was my last day at VeronaWalk. I am just coming to the realization that for the last month I have been an emotional roller coaster. I've been really stressed, not sleeping and just not mentally together. This morning after our WOD I seriously had a emotional breakdown. I was upset that my body gave out right at the end and that I couldn't stop cramping on the double unders. I didn't get the RXD which really made me depressed and disappointed. I just wasn't myself and didn't perform the way I wanted. When I got home, I just had a good cry. I know I sound crazy, but I think that is what I needed. I feel better now and am really ready to turn the page in my life. I'm scared, I'm nervous but I know I can get through it. From today on I am going to focus on my diet (cause that always suffers when I'm stressed) and getting enough rest. Everything else will fall into place. Ahhhhhhhhh.

Got to give a shout out to my girl Sarah who kicked butt on the filthy fifty and to Liz for totally stepping up her game. Nice job girls, you both rock!!

Thursday!

Got some good sleep last night yeah! WOD was killer and I'm still recovering. My hands and shoulders are shot and my thumbs are still tingly! I think it's b/c I've had some shoulder issues with volleyball and the blood flow is just not up to par. Something to remember.......
AMRAP- 100ft. walking lunges with 33lbs bar, 7 burpees, 1 rope climb. 5 rounds plus 1 done.

5:10am- Chicken, strawberries, almonds
7:30am-3 eggs, strawberries, peach, 1/2 apple, almonds
12:15pm-Spinach salad with chicken-Out to lunch with a few residents
5pm-Strawberries, chicken, almonds
7pm-Eggplant, chicken, salad, grapes

So the tingling has now gone away but my thumb still doesn't feel right. I know I have circulation issues! Shoulders are fine but I'm sure my muscles will be sore. One more day at VeronaWalk and then next week I start my new job!!! So excited except I am a little nervous.....They are having a huge going away party tomorrow after work for me. Of course I have a killer WOD Saturday morning that I'm not missing- Filthy Fifty. I'll do my best to stay in line! YIKES!!

Slept in until 8am, no alarm ahhhh how sweet it is to be on vacation! Going to try and catch a walk in with mom and dad and then hopefully hit the gym! Made it to the gym WOD-Deadlifts- 6 sets of 5. Started with 135 worked up to 215lbs. Would've like to had someone watching my form but I did my best. Had to break up the last few sets of 5. Went for an hour hike around Taughannock Park with my girl from high school it was great. Spent some time at the park swimming in the lake (OH MY GOD how cold!)and then headed home for dinner. What a beautiful day! That's Taughannock Park we hiked the rim trail all the way around. It's 5 minutes from my house and the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi. (not the largest just the highest!)
