Watch out Toronto, I’m a comin’ for ya.

The last time I drove to Toronto solo, this happened.

Months later, I’m on my way to Toronto today. Solo.

Remember this tweet? I can’t tell you exactly what it was about, but it has a reason  for why I’m going to Toronto today. I mean I could tell you if I wanted to, but I love secrets! If I get home early enough tonight I’ll hopefully have a vlog revealing everything I was “hiding” (and not really talking about) from you guys.

SO FUN! STAY TUNED. Weeeeee! (Psst: It’s probably not going to be exciting to you. For the folks on twitter thinking I’m engaged or pregnant. That is not my surprise.)

OOTWW

Please come back to my blog in the morning. I may have a little surprise :)

For now I’ll leave you with my late outfit of the work week. Boyfriend and I went out skating in Uptown to a free local (small) skate rink outside. DJ’s were playing some pretty upbeat house music, totally my style. Loved it all. Skating wears you out though! Moses.

Catch me over on YouTube tonight….and have a great Friday!

My CrossFit Journal (week 52)

It’s my first anniversary at CrossFit!! I’ve been going for a whole YEAR. That seems like madness to me. Regular gym memberships hold my interest for 4 months tops, and to see myself still going frequently without much break to CrossFit excites me! What’ve got rounded up for this week? Not much gotta admit. I was feeling pretty lazy this week. So I didn’t go as often as I wanted to. Next week will be better!

Week 52 Day 1.

21-15-9

Power Cleans; 115/80lbs
Thrusters; 115/80lbs

That’s 21 power cleans, then 21 thrusters, 15 power cleans, 15 thrusters, and so on. OH MY LORD.

I used 45lbs in total and finished the workout in 16:13. My shoulders are still pretty weak in comparison to the rest of my body. So the thrusters were taking their toll on me. Especially on my right wrist. Power through it! I had enough of it all when I had to start the thrusters again, but then I totally played with my mind. I pretended I was throwing my nephews up in the air and somehow, it made it easier. I wasn’t thinking about the weight at all. I was thinking about my nephews. Funny what your brain can trick you to do.
