Viking WOD

Friday afternoon, Jeff invited me to do a WOD at Sterling's house. Thinking about hitting the rounds in the sunshine with these two fire-breathers, I said yeah - I'll be there! Sterling had chalked up our mission on the alley pavement and the weights and rower awaited in the sun. We hit it hard for ten rounds, exploding the weights through the moves. I felt energized with deep reserves of stamina. I had eaten very well that day and it made the difference. The workout in the back alley had a guerrilla vibe to it, like we just showed up with weights and chalk and went at it like maniacs. That just added to the fun of the whole thing. Consider this a brief pictorial essay.

That's a fine looking workout there, I've been doing crossfit for 5 weeks now.

Its certainly never boring, each time I workout it feels like the hardest workout I've done.

Its changed my attitude somewhat to 'vanity exercise' too, no more curls or leg extensions for me!

Your blog is certainly well written too. A pleasure to read.

Great post, I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad at all the pics, I love them, but as a result you've writen less than normal and I alway's love your writing....LOL.

At least I was there and understand how you felt!
