I'm going a little off topic here- I am glad Obama was re-elected. I do not/cannot trust generational politicians and there was just something so shady about Romney. Better the devil you know, etc.
Okay - back to CrossFit! I was so sore and exhausted last night around 8:00. I think it was still from Monday's workout, but really do not know! I went to bed at 10:00, which is a decent time, but then I woke up around 2:00 and could not go back to sleep until sometime after 4:00. I HATE when I do that!!
Today's workout is for time, 3 rounds of:
33 Situps
21 Burpees
Run 400 meters (1/4 mile)
I will attempt Burpees again today, but if it doesn't work (meaning, if I face plant like I did the last time I tried them!) I will switch and do a pushup, front squat, and box jump. Wish me luck!!

29:02 - My word!! What a hard week of workouts so far!! I still cannot do burpees (I tried and failed). I don't have the coordination and my stomach is in the way whenever I squat down to go into the plank position. I tried just going down to pushup position, then up on my knees, to my feet, then into a standing jump - but just didn't feel like that worked very well. So...after 4 of those, I switched to just pushups, then 21 squat jump things (I went down into squat position then jumped straight up) - THOSE got my heartrate up!! Also, my legs were so wobbly today - I did the treadmill for the first segment, but switched to my bike the other two. Breakdown as follows:
Round 1
33 situps - I sat on my weight bench and kept my feet on the floor - MAN could I feel those today!
21 pushups
21 squat/straight jump up things
Ran 6 blocks @ 4.4/mph - walked 4 blocks @ 3.0/mph - ran 6 blocks @ 4.4/mph
Round 2
33 situps on weight bench
21 push ups
21 squat/straight jump up things
1/5 mile on bike @ 5 resistance and 18/mph
Round 3
33 situps on weight bench
21 push ups
21 squat/straight jump up things
1/5 mile on bike @ 5 resistance and 18/mph
EXHAUSTED, but proud that I did not listen to myself and stop after two rounds!!
