About Me

My photo
43yo father of two. Type A, loves to plan, make "todo" lists, and stack things. My heart is on my sleeve. Both sleeves actually. I'm an open book. I favor symmetry. I can't be late for anything. I hate talking politics and religion. I watched the movie “Jaws” when I was much too young (and yes, it still haunts me). I could leap tall buildings in a single bound had I only done more squats and plyometrics as a teen.(Crossfit has me believing that I will one day). For 21 years I hid my mini-battles with OCD, the weirdest obsession revolving around the number “8”, all of which abruptly ended the night of October 27th, 2004. I've never tried an illegal drug, or cigarettes for that matter. People laugh at this, then call me a liar, but it's true. I say "Happy Holidays", not "Merry Christmas". It's the PCness in me I suppose. I leave out the word "God" when I say the Pledge of Allegiance and have so since the 10th grade. I think it has something to do with Separation of Church and State. I prefer sleeping with a night-light. So what? I have one addiction. No wait, two. Actually, three. Ice cream, Crossfit, and triathlon. Yeah, I know, these don't really work together too well.

2/1/13
Crossfit Reclamation - 1hr - 5:30am

MOBILITY only.  During yesterday's session I was working on my handstands against a wall.  While trying to readjust the position of my hands, my neck wrenched a bit and I have had a tightness between my right scapula and spine.  This was a little worse when I awoke this morning, so I elected to spend the hour doing nothing but stretching (lacrosse balls, foam rollers, etc).  I think it was a great decision.  Next week I will start tri-specific training 3-4x/wk, on top of 4 CFR WOD's per week, and will begin dedicating 2 sessions per week on flexibility/mobility/stretching.


No workouts/training on weekend.  I was acting health officer at a scouting overnight event on Saturday. Sunday I spent preparing food for the week and watching the Superbowl.
