Summer slams us...

7/7 and forecast for 95. Rain right up until last week and now, wham, hot. Took this week off, now it is really very hot to try and work outside. Still, I am finally getting the hot tub wired, cuz I need it. Next the sauna and deck surface.
Been doing crossfit workouts and running the course. Weighed 204 the other day, so 8-9 lbs and this is my 10th week. But the diet is still not a huge priority or I would double that.
6/29 clocked a 6:06, 12:20, 27:05 for a PR, and have not felt that good since.
7/1 Crossfit, 5 sets of 15 dead lifts/12 squats/9 cleans/6 presses. I started with 90lbs and by the 2nd set retreated to 80. Still ,that is 3350 x 5 = 17,000 lbs in 34 min.
My upper body was shredded, and stopped hurting in only 5 days.
7/3 ran a slogging 29 min.
7/4 forgot about everything and hit two BBQ's with friends and family for the 4th. I am sure that set me back about a week....
7/5 ran another 29 min
7/6 Crossfit, 3 rounds of 10 pushups, (yes, I have the smallest triceps on earth) 50 squats, 1K. 36 min. Doesn't sound too bad until you realize the 1k is 1/2 severely up hill on a gravel driveway, and it was 85 degrees. Ugh.
We will see what today brings, 95+ is a little tough for outside workouts.
