I wish I'd slept in

I really didn't want to get out of bed this morning. Like, really didn't. BUT, I'd committed to Dave that I'd do gym so I rolled out at 6am. Unfortunately, Dave slept through his alarm, and by the time I found this out, I'd already started the workout! Oh well, it's probably a good thing. I can sleep Friday.

I did the Crossfit North Manly session from today (that Annabel, Mom, Dad & Angus did in Sydney at the same time!). It was in two parts:

21-15-9 reps of supine ring rows and walking lunges with 20kg dumbells

then,
"Annie" which is 50-40-30-20-10 reps of double unders and situps

The first part took me 6:40, so was hard but quick. That is about as heavy as I'd want to go for walking lunges. "Annie" was a bit more challenging as my skipping was completely out of kilter this morning. I felt completely unco-ordinated, mainly because I WAS completely unco-ordinated!!! I did 3 skips per double under and the first set took me ages because I just couldn't get into a rhythm. Fortunately, I worked through it by the thrid set and was fine from there on. I also did GHD situps which are a bit harder than normal situps.

A weird problem I'm having from working late every night is that I never have time to go grocery shopping! Woolies shuts at 9pm so I left work early last night to get there just as it was closing. That meant I could feast this morning on a brekky of smoked salmon, poached eggs and baby spinach with my usual smoothie and coffee. At least that partly makes up for not sleeping in.
