Tapering for reals now

Im blogging from my cell phone while Hannah's in with her reading tutor. I felt so grown up today. I actually sat on a park bench with soccer moms while we watched our kids play after school. Now all I need is a minivan. Hannahs new school is way cooler than her last school. And john would be proud. Its in the hood. ;) Today was my last workout until next monday. I am feeling more excited than bitter about running this week. I had a great run this weekend and held a good pace. Shirley judges a good run by pace and how much I talk. I was able to talk this last run so that's good. So im waiting for a nickname to stick with me. I've been called Keen, Joe Cocker, cupcake, flame out boy, and most recently 4916. 49 is the number of push presses I did in the first set of FGB and 16 is the number I did in the last set. So now I have a gym record. Biggest performance degradation ever in a Fight Gone Bad workout. Nothing to be proud of but hey, its something. ;) im under a ton of pressure to meet some huge deadlines at work. I needed some feel good food today so I ate a german chocolate cake today for lunch. If that was wrong, I don't want to be right. It was amazing. Plus im carb loading for the run. My thumbs are cramping so im going to end this one now.

Warmup 3x
10 pvc Pass throughs
10 pvc squats
50 jumpropes

Skill 4x
5 dead hang pullups focused on negatives
5 ring dips focused on depth and negatives
5 one arm push presses(25lb DB)

WOD 3x through 90 sec rest between rounds
35sec work/25 sec rest
Sprints
Jumping rope pullups
Ball slams.
Kb clean (25lb would go heavier if no marathon)
Jump rope

Workout was good but intentionally held back which felt weird to do. Folks were really kind and wished me good luck as I was leaving. Reminded me again of why I love this gym and the sense of community its created.
