Hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Eric and I kicked off our Labor Day weekend with a  workout at CrossFit Orlando. We did a double WOD because some of our friends are getting ready for a competition next weekend so we practiced some of those WODs.

After warmups here’s what we did:

WOD #1

6 min AMRAP {as many rounds as possible}

6 pull ups

6 clean and jerk

WOD #2

8 min for time

50 goblet squats {35# kettlebell}

75 kettlebell swings {35#}

300 singles

THEN we all hung out and had breakfast and mimosas together! I love this about our CFO family 🙂

I was super impressed with the spread. Especially this new take on pizza!

A watermelon pie loaded with fruit and coconut served in a pizza box! Super nifty idea.

In other happenings we took a HOT AND SWEATY Labor Day run… it was not fun because it was 97 degrees. #OnlyTheCraziesRunAt2PMinAugust

Today marked our first day of fall half marathon training and we had our first track workout with my bro. Sweaty fun! I just can’t wait till cooler weather makes it our way.

Cheers to a shorter week!

      Thanks Jess!! A few halfs in the pipeline this fall… fingers crossed I’m planning on running Savannah as my main race.
