Post total time.

This was my first "official" WOD.  As if that thought didn't have me nervous enough, the first thing I see on the Whiteboard is a friggin 1 Mile Sandbag Run. Great. An instructor named Chad, whom I found to be every bit as friendly and energetic as Chriss, did his best to explain the WOD as matter-of-factly as possible.  Still I was a bit worried.  Turns out it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought; though that first 400 meters with the sandbag, did make my lungs ache (I don't normally warm-up on runs, until a half-mile is already in the books). The Handstand pushups presented no real issue, as I've done pushups out the wazoo anyway. As this was a partner workout, me and my partner of the day James, jogged out to look for tires to flip.  As it turned out most of the lower weights were taken, so we had to use a tire "designed" for two.  250 lbs? No problem! It went surprisingly quick. As for the Double Unders, though I am jump-rope extraordinaire, (from years as child doing "Jump Rope For Heart) I still could not just yet get the timing down on them.  Sooooo, James and I (as he sucks at double unders as well) were relegated to 400 single jumps. This was actually a nice recovery, because again, I'm pretty friggin nice at single jumps in all their forms.  But, I will be doing double unders by the next WOD that involves them, and that's that. Now for the real pain.  What a great note to end on (note sarcasm). I absolutely abhor walking lunges.  There is no burn quite like them. And so much cardio at the same time! Luckily this was partner work as well, so only 50 for me. All in all not a bad day. It's actually been a day and my legs feel pretty good, which is surprising.  Could have something to do with the cooldown Chad led us through that involved stretching with bands, that personally I feel hurt almost as much as the damn lunges. Friday will bring new joy.....and pain.
