Iron Kitty: April 2013

Thursday 11 April 2013

The OPEN is CLOSED! I am really excited to start training heavy, hard and fast again without having to worry about the next wod! I am satisfied with my performance in the Open this year especially since it was my first one. I’m OK with being #258 in Canada East. The last wod really saved my ass. I redid it twice within 15min of each other and my 2^nd performance was way better than the first time. Out of all the wods, I felt really great for the final one and I’ve never felt hungrier!!! It was truly a mind game and I fought the urge to drop the bar everytime. I wanted to get it all over with and by the time I realized how tired I was, the wod was over!

Open 2013 was filled with Pr’s, failures and wake-up calls for me. I’ve always known that I need to work on double-unders, snatches, toes to bar, box jumps, and muscle-ups…OK FINE. EVERYTHING. I NEED TO WORK ON EVERYTHING. LOL But these wods really shook me up and make me want to do better. Not for next year but for next week. I must train like I’m in a competition for every wod in order to reach my goals. Writing down my scores and Pr’s is always helpful because I can look back and try to smoke my old time/PR’s.
