It was cold and really hard to be surrounded by overweight, unhealthy people who smoked - man I felt absolutely terrible yesterday and not 100% today - that was just gross! Did go for a 20 minute trail run to test out the knee and see how my calf might hold up and things actually felt really good the odd twinge but nothing i can't handle, other than i was totally gassed - yikes.<br /><br />A.

I agree, the 10k race and Crossfit are different not only in the time domains, but most importantly in the constant variation of movements. It's precisely that variety in CF that makes it so challenging because, as you said Ken, you aren't running the same race all the time. <br /><br />While the movements are always different, the discipline of finding the balance in the WOD for the relaxed aggression seems the same in all of them . . . even in Fran where it's more of a sprint. <br /><br />I am just wondering how others find that balance in the WOD. Mental cues? Mantras during the WOD? Points where you typically stop instead of squeezing out another rep? Timed rest (like counting breaths)?<br /><br />I'd love to hear how other approach it.<br /><br />Thanks.Stahlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18122077720680298407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955910955820173624.post-41491361511258007962010-05-23T20:51:48.493-06:002010-05-23T20:51:48.493-06:00A.

The true challenge was being held between the ears and neither Dawg showed an ounce of quit in them and it was truly inspiring to watch. <br /><br />Garage was unable to compete due to injury but was coaching and discussing strategy all weekend with Wes and PTS and I'm sure that as difficult as it was to be sidelined, he found as much enjoyment helping others as competing. <br /><br />Dmarsh was awesome. Plain and simple. He was by far the most efficient athlete competing and Garage's wife said it best, "Dennis looks as calm doing 30 (95#) power snatches as he would be reading the newspaper." <br /><br />It was also great to meet the other Big Dawgs Mike Malloy and BK who both turned in a couple amazing performances.<br /><br />As for me, even though I didn't lift anything heavy this weekend, I chased around a 2 year old little girl for three <br />days straight and I'm ready to crash and burn. <br /><br />Good lick to all the Dawgs competing next week!<br /><br />Ouuuuu!!!!<br /><br /><br /><br />Overall a great weekend.DAVE Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09206040135759845259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955910955820173624.post-78836047747101486552010-05-23T19:35:08.900-06:002010-05-23T19:35:08.900-06:00A. 3 sets unbroken.

A lot of PR's on the 3RM clean and jerk.<br /><br />On a personal note my absolute worst movements came up in the workouts. OHS in the first and HSPU in the 3rd. I've had a lot of improvement in both movements in the last year but still not enough to be competitive at this level. <br /><br />Gonna take a week (maybe more) off and get back to the Big Dawgs. <br /><br />Good luck to all the remaining Big Dawgs still to compete.PTShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603761668526809636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-955910955820173624.post-87784133718543771912010-05-23T17:43:05.819-06:002010-05-23T17:43:05.819-06:00A. 13, 13, 10, 10, 10
