My current standing so far for the CrossFit Open for the
Central East Region is 55th place out of 472 for the Masters Women
45-49 age group, and 709 out of 6,143 women worldwide.

Today was the 2nd workout for the 2015 Reebok
CrossFit Open. It was a repeat from 14.2. Last year I did this workout twice. I
did 32 reps the first time and 36 reps the second time. This morning, I did 1
rep better than last year for a total of 37 reps. Unfortunately, I didn’t make
it out of the first round and I am considering giving it a second go on Monday
morning. The chest-to-bars were tough especially after all the other workouts
I’ve been doing this week that have included burpees (lots and lots of burpees)
and pushups. I did the majority of them strict and added a few kipping
chest-to-bars in there. Megghan, one of the coaches suggested that I work on my
kipping over the weekend and then try again on Monday for a better score. I
have been working on my kipping during some of the workouts, sometimes I have
the rhythm, and sometimes I don’t. My kip is like a sprint, rather than a
marathon, once it’s gone, it’s gone. I was afraid to kip all of them today
because I thought I might waste too much time on the rhythm rather than just
doing chest-to-bars. The overhead squats felt really good, I had no difficulty
getting through those.
In addition to my regular workouts, I’ve been doing my
monthly fitness challenge and another challenge that I was invited to by my
sister that includes a lot of planks. The second challenge I am doing because
my younger sister is doing it and I want to help support her in her quest to be
fit and healthy! Plus, it’s always more fun when you have someone to help keep
you accountable. With my monthly challenge, my friend and I are posting our
times and scores on Facebook every time we do the workout. Another friend from
the gym is doing it along with us.
Yesterday, my Concept2 Rower from Rogue arrived and I am
very anxious to start incorporating this into my workouts. I was able to row a
mere 1000m in between my finals and clients I had to train yesterday. I hope to
work my way up to rowing 10,000m every Sunday with one of the other coaches
that I work with and some of the other members from our Box.
Check back next week to see what 15.3 has in store and my
standings after this week’s workout.
In Health & Fitness,
Marissa
