By the time 6:30 rolled around I was ready to just go to bed early and skip the gym. But I&#8217;m cheap and a creature of habit, so the $10 late fee plus the regular trip to the gym pushed me over the edge and got me to class.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re doing Fight Gone Bad on Saturday, and a lot of people are getting nervous about it. I&#8217;ve only done it once in the past, last June, back when I had a hard time with push presses, wall ball, and a lot of other things as well. I remember getting a very low score on it, maybe less than 200, so it won&#8217;t take much to improve that score. I&#8217;m not worried at all.<\/p>\n<p>What did worry me was today&#8217;s workout. It was a 250m row, 20 ball slams, and a sprint to the end of the parking lot and back, three times. The last time I did this workout, I ended up bonking and walked on my last run. As tired and sore as I was all day, I wasn&#8217;t looking forward to this workout. I ended up getting a cumulative time of 6 minutes for three rounds which was pretty darn good, though I thought I was going to lose my lunch. I think several people actually did lose their lunch from this sprint workout.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, tomorrow is Friday but I&#8217;m still not going to bed on time. I&#8217;m still kind of wired from the workout. It&#8217;s the most awake I&#8217;ve been all day, just when I should be sleeping.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think my morning coffee at work was served without the antidote.
