WOD: EMOTM Snatch Complex
           2min AMRPA Back Squats
           1 mi for time





On the way home from working out last night, I was talking to Nick about my 1 mile PR. I have shaved 30 seconds off of my time. I was proud of that! If you know me, you know that I have maybe one competitive bone in my body. 95% of the time, I could care less what anybody is doing around me. I don't count weight, I don't watch reps, I don't look at the board to compare my scores. Running is usually the only activity where that 5% shines through. I must admit, it sometimes feels good to pass these young kids and know that whatever I'm doing, it's still working! But, I also humbled by those runners who pass me or push me to puke status. I guess I can appreciate those around me. The faster and slower :)

In my conversation Nick reminded me of this: My goal is to be healthy. My goal isn't to be the strongest, the fastest, the best...it's to be me. A healthy me. As long as I go in everyday and do my best, I have won.
