Where's Waldo?

I've missed my Crossfit sessions twice this week. I've been pushing through contract negotiations late evenings, bringing it in for landing. This sucks, but is necessary. Life happens.

In the meantime, I've been experimenting with zone-friendly meals. I've made a Crossfit breakfast of tortilla (small), beans, egg, avocado, salsa, tomatoes and back bacon. It's been difficult to eat this much considering my usual breakfast has been a bowl of Kashi cereal and coffee. For snacks, I've been eating tuna, mixed with chopped tomatoes and peanuts. Surprising to me, I really enjoy these meals. My energy has been terrific in the last two days and I feel alert. This has served me well to get me through the long days. Which makes me realize another benefit of Crossfit. Each time I felt stonewalled and frustrated with contract delays and hard-to-reach executives, I just dug deep and kept on pushing. I thought of Crossfit and how I keep on working through the wall. Doing that is having some unexpected benefits to my career.

I'm crossing my fingers that I can finish the job tomorrow and get to the gym. I'm craving that feeling again.
