[QUOTE=Jason David;534704]Thanks Carter!

Here's an update...I haven't really done any kind of a workout since saturday. Actually, on Saturday I did our MCCF Warmup and then a bunch of Muscle ups because of my headache issue. (Started during pullups in the WO which made my head hurt but seemed okay doing slow MU's) So I figured I would take an extra few days off. Well Monday comes and we find out we are having our baby about 2 weeks early!! On Tuesday the 3rd instead of monday the 16th. I had tentatively scheduled my rest week for the week we had our baby so basically it just happened the same time as my
'headache' issue. Well. We had a beautiful baby girl, Micah Joy (8 lbs, 9 oz). She was very healthy for the 1st 12 hours or so then things started to change and the last 3 days have been probably the worst of my life...

She's getting better but we aren't out of the woods yet. I'm optimistic and hopeful that everything will be okay. I'm a worrier so, when there are complications with your first born you tend to freak out a bit.

This is really the first time I've left the hospital/NICU - Just came home to get a few things in order and I even went for a little run.

40 mins. My house to 901 Lakeshore back to 22804...

didn't feel great...still not 100%.

Keep your fingers crossed![/QUOTE]

Oh man - I've been delinquent here... my apologies.

Congratulation on the birth of your daughter! :highfive:
I hope she is doing better now.

best wishes
Sean

Yesterday was bad...for the first time ever I didn't finish my workout.
I think a few things happened...bit off more than I could chew and...some pain in the arms told me to stop. I also had a PT test this morning that was on my mind.

I tried that pullup workout from the mainsite the other day...the weighted/deadhang/kipping one. tried with 25#...made it 2 rounds. Then 15#...then went to 5 dh and 7 kipping then just gave up.

live to fight another day...

Rowed 2000 m light....in like 8:38.

Yesterday was bad...today was good.

Took an entry level police physical fitness test today.

My goal was really to just pass. Then I saw what the 19 year olds standards were when graduating and wanted to beat that. Nailed everything! I was only concerned for the run but at the end the dude goes 'you could've stopped for a cup of coffee!!"

Parentheses was what i needed brackets is what i wanted.
Vertical jump
20 (16) [19]
Situps
38 (30) [37]
Pushups
53 (30) [36]
1/2 mile shuttle run

Then got to the box and did 'Diane' for the first time ever...

AMRAP in 30 minutes

5 pullups
5 ring-dips
15 sit-ups.

18 + Ring dips.

Didn't really get 'winded' during this one...which I thought was weird.

Re: JD's CrossFit Chronicle
 

Nice work on the police exam and Diane!

I have done the death by pull ups WOD, and I forget when (very early IIRC) but I had to scale very quickly. My dead hangs were gone in the early rounds - had to kip everything... I forget what happened with the weighted... I'll have to check my log.

***edit***
found it:
[quote]
10 rounds for time:
3 weighted pullups (wore 40# vest)
5 strict pullups
7 kipping pullups

My time - 8:40 (but don't get excited, that was only 5 rounds).

After the second round, there were no more strict pull ups - all were kipping pull ups after I stripped off the weight vest. Near the end of the 4th round I got a nice big rip on my right hand, so I went through the 5th round, and called it quits.[/quote]
