10th
Early Morning Intervals
Joined up with UW Strength and Conditioning last night - the “look good naked” signs you see around campus are from them. It looks like I’m going to be doing some “athletic development” on Wednesday nights and Crossfit on Thursdays… which is awesome.
I’ve thought long and hard about joining a Crossfit gym for the past couple of months, but due to my erratic work schedule it never really would have worked out. Here’s my chance, and it’s only costing me $10 for the term. Not a bad deal at all.
I recently discovered the community centre behind my house has an indoor track above the arena - it’s 250m long and is FREE from 6am-5pm.
So, my WOD (First session, I’m going to deadlift later today too):
500m jog
1000m, sprint the straights, walk the curves
500m jog/walk cool down
Heart rate was through the roof after the first straight, and it feels awesome to be sprinting again. It’s probably the closest thing to feeling like a kid again without playing Lego.

Sprinting does a body good.
