Beating the Boys

Imagine:  2k row, 150 double unders, and 10 rounds of Cindy (5 pull ups, 10 push ups, and 15 air squats).

Imagine you’re the last one off the rower–and you still beat everyone in the gym.

This was me today.

I’m a horrible rower.  Just terrible.  I’ve gotten better, but it’s definitely not one of my strengths.

I was the last one off the rower.  Some guys were a good 3-4 minutes ahead of me.

I messed up the double unders maybe 4 times.

I did Cindy.  Strict.  Because my left shoulder feels a bit wonky from practicing bar muscle-ups.

And I still won.7ad86c0875a5863e6ce46848764e9b4a-girls-who-workout-crossfit-girls

I couldn’t believe it.

It’s because my strengths are body weight and never stopping till the end.  I did this as soon as I got off the rower.

Today was a good day.

Anytime I beat the boys it’s a good day.

But anytime I come from behind it’s even better.

However, anytime I come from behind AND beat the boys it’s an awesome day indeed.
