So for those who don’t do Crossfit, Fran is the name of a benchmark workout. 21 thrusters, 21 pullups, 15 thrusters, 15 pullups, 9 thrusters, and 9 pullups. My throat felt dry afterwards and it was from breathing so hard during the workout. In fact, your chest can hurt the day after the workout for the same reason. I think I was the slowest in our class, but I still improved my time and I even did more weight on the thrusters. The “prescribed weight” is 95# for the thruster and I did 85#. Last time I did 75#, so that’s a 13% increase. I’m not sure that was a wise increase because of the difficulty and because my knees hurt like hell right now. It even made me miss going to the The Dark Knight with hotties from the gym (you know who you are).
I almost missed going to the gym because I was at work late. They’re actually making me work for the money and that’s quite an annoyance. I also heard a rumor that the contractor thinks it’s going to be hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair our house. While I trust him and I know there’s lots of repairs that need to be done, F*CK*NG H*LL that’s a lot of money. I guess it’s time to get a loan.
My iPhone continues to annoy me, but I still love it. I guess I may need that therapist after all.
Call me crazy but I love titles like this that have my name! Only topped when there were was a Hurricane Fran and there was a picture in the paper of a guy with his store boarded up, spray painted with the words “F*ck you Fran!”
Now I just gotta figure out what a thruster is…
