After four straight days off from Crossfit I managed five workouts in six days with some swimming in between.

Usually Crossfit is such a large mixture of exercises that it doesn’t effect me with 4-5 WoDs in a week. But there has been a lot shoulder to over head this week.

Thursday was the Avicii hero workout. Friday 50 wallballs, cleans and push press. Saturday, Sunday and Monday we’re regular WoDs, but today’s WoD include 50 lunges, 100 push press and 150 OH squats with 40kg (88lbs) on top of running and rowing.

By the time I got to the lake I felt recovered, but as soon as I put on my wetsuit I could feel my shoulders aching. I knew it would be difficult to swim today. But the water temp and waves coupled with my sore shoulders it was no pleasure swim. But managed to get in 1500m and now OW season has started.

Sitting on the sofa I am starting to notice I’m sore all over…..

Looking forward to my next rest day Saturday when Lily races in the regional qualifier for girls 13 yrs old.
