New Year, New Goals, New Attitude.

New Year=New Attitude.  I have been giving myself a little break since running the 7.5 miles in September.  That is until I ran into a CrossFit friend while at work about a month ago.  She was able to talk me into coming to classes again.  I felt a little out of place considering I had really not been regularly attending classes to focusing on running.  It did not take long to feel the welcoming feeling that I remembered.  I was halfway into my workout and ready to vomit when I heard a voice tell me "Keep it up."  I am still not sure who that was, but it was exactly what I needed.
I have committed myself to 3 days a week at CrossFit.  I also decided to make myself a list of goals/achievements that I would like to have for 2013.

1.  Deadlift more than I weigh
2.  Unassisted pull ups
3.  Drop 5 minutes off my 5K

I have learned since my race that I work best when I have goals set.  If I do not give myself goals I will not have anything to keep myself accountable.

Todays WOD worked on my weaknesses.  Chest to Bar, V ups and kettlebell swings.  I am not sure that there will ever be a day that I say "Wow that was easy", but someday I hope to say, "Wow that wasn't as bad as it used to be."
