So, clearly I suck at blogging. I keep meaning to, and never get back.

I bit the bullet and joined the crossfit gym down the street from work. I did 3 weeks of "on ramp" which teaches you the basics of the exercises. It was a lot of fun, I totally love it. Mike thinks I'm even more insane now, but well, you'll have that. Today was my last class. We did the Ben workout again, which is the same workout we did the first class. My time then was 6:11. Today was 4:55. It's run 200 meters, 15-12-9 of ring pull ups, pushups and airsquats, then 200 meter run. More impressive to me than the time was that I didn't need to alter the ring pull ups any, I did them all without any modifications. The pushups, I did go to my knees after the first set. I probably could have done them all...I was worried about my time though.

Today was also the Women's Distance Festival. Which I DID NOT get to do because it SOLD.OUT. I'm pretty bitter about that. Mad at myself for not registering when I should have, and also because it's become more of a walk than anything. Most people walk. I know because someone I know posted her time as 21:30, and she finished in the top third. Hello! I know this sounds elitist and shitty, but I hate that. Maybe they should have two separate events if it's going to be this popular. It always irritated me before that the walkers would line up in the front, even though they are not supposed to. Common event courtesy and they mention it as you're lining up as well. I've done that race every year except 1 for the last 8 years. Boo. It's a points race for SRRC! I have no freaking points this year yet. Gah.

Oh well, I ran three miles on the trail. I've GOT to get back to running...October will be here before I know it. I'm already way behind on my training for the marathon.
