Well...
After surviving SEC Championships eating only paleo food amongst the cookies and other crap, I finally was able to have the BEST homecooked paleo meal from my mother herself! Grilled chicken, grilled peppers (of all different colors of course), broccoli, and a sweet potato! And some wine (not paleo. oops. it was a LONG WEEKEND people, don’t judge). But goodNESS it was amazing!! I feel very...

This is so hard...
To say no thanks to all these delicious treats at the horse show. Literally girls are bringing cake balls and cookies out from nowhere and I haven’t had a single one. MUST. NOT. SPOIL. PALEO-NESS.
aghhhh.
melavond asked: Hi there! The photo with the workout clothes is my own photo. So I thought I would help you out! the bras are c9 by champion and you can get them at target. I highly recommend them! I'm not comfortable in any other brand or style now.

New PR (finally)!
Since Fran on Steroids (aka 12.5) destroyed my quads on Sunday and Monday, I took yesterday off from CrossFit and just did active recovery. Today’s WOD was one I had to make up from missing yesterday, and oh, it was a fun one. NOT.
Before the WOD, I spent about 15 minutes working up to a 1RM heavy powerclean. Now I know I played soccer for 16 years and did gymnastics for 6, but I had never...

Wahoo!
12.5 is done! Holy toledo that felt even worse than Fran normally does. That’s okay though because I’m just glad I finally got to do it. This part of the season with the Games has made me even more driven not to necessarily qualify for anything (with college athletics, it’s hard to train consistently), but to continue pushing myself to my limit EVERY SINGLE WORKOUT. My goal...

So ticked...
That I didn’t get to do 12.5 today. We got held over at the team workday at the barn today and I literally was so angry I couldn’t speak to anyone because I missed the time for the workout at the gym (yes people, that’s how much I love crossfit). The good thing is I’m doing it tomorrow, but still, I really wanted to get after it today. Oh well. In all seriousness, I...

Getting mentally ready...
For Games WOD 12.5 tomorrow. Man oh man, thrusters are NOT my strong suit. Chest to bars I can do fine, but the thrusters are what get me it always seems. At least it did when I did Fran. This “Fran on Steroids” WOD should be interesting to say the least! I told my CrossFit coach today, “Thrusters and I have never gotten along, and lately I”ve been having issues connecting...

Drumroll please....
Haha I’m totally kidding. But in all seriousness, I am SO TOTALLY ECSTATIC because I have officially gotten an internship with legendary racing operation Three Chimneys Farm in Kentucky this summer!!!! I couldn’t be happier. God is so good!
