I finally did it....I've been a CrossFit-ter for over a year and I finally ripped my hand during a WOD. Can't say I am glad it happened....its pretty painful!!! The WOD was:
7 rounds for time of:
5 handstand pushups
10 toes to bar
10 hang power snatch (55#)
I've been able to do HSPU's in my WOD's, with plates under my head since I can't quite get the full range of motion. Getting there though. I"ve never even attempted TTB, since I figured my legs were way too long and heavy to be able to do them. After the regionals this weekend, I saw how people did them and I was able to do the same. Anyway, I had a few good TTB's in a row on round 4 then I notices these "holes" in my hand. I quickly wrapped it up and kept going, but I switched to GHD situps since I wasn't even able to do knees to elbows. The wod was approximately 26 min. Way longer than I like my metcons, but it was also extremely hot in the gym. Good workout all-in-all. Side note: I'm glad I have two arms and hands because showering and washing my hair with essentially one hand was pretty challenging this AM!
I did my run WOD this morning...I think I'll be doing a total of 3 this week. I'll do my Tempo/Time Trial on Sunday. This am was: 10x200m, 2 min rest. It was tough but good. I'm way weaker over mid-distance. Which is why my 5km time, 10km and 21.1km time don't correlate well. I need to address that by doing longer intervals (which was Tuesday's workout.) AM runs are easier because it wasn't so hot...but still very humid!
I'm off to the NKOTBSB concert tonight with my mom and a few friends. I saw NKOTB last June and it was awesome! Such a great way to remember how I felt when I was 7 :)
