Run 1/2 mile 50 air squats – 3 rounds for time.
I'm anxious about doing this workout because I know it's going to be painful. I'm interpreting this anxiety as a sign that I picked the right workout. My goal for the workout is just to FINISH (no quitting permitted) and to do all my air squats with good form. I want to use this workout to build my anaerobic and aerobic capacity - but mainly focus on the former. I'm racing Summer this Monday if I make it through this workout. I want to convince my mind that my body is ready to take on Summer in a couple days.
I'm scare enough of this workout that since I made the decision an hour ago to do it, I've been procrastinating. Here are two things I've found while procrastinating:
1. G7 Story - Veronica Garza : really inspiring video about how a woman overcame Lupus by changing her diet and working out at a Crossfit box in Laredo, TX. Made me cry.

2. Strong is the New Skinny Shirt : Cute T-shirt. I want to buy myself this shirt when I am strong enough to do chin-ups and pull-ups without support.

| WAAAANT! |
OK, now I'm getting hungry. I need to do this work-out now or eat and delay the workout another 2 - 3 hours.


I did the workout in 25 min 31.91 sec. I only teared up once (somewhere near the end of my 2nd set of 50 air squats).
