California Dreamin’ Part 1 Tuesday, December 22, 2009

So I finally arrived in Carmel, California yesterday after basically 24 hours of travel. It was NOT supposed to take that long and required me spending over 16 hours in the Philadelphia airport. Needless to say I arrived and felt exhausted and definitely like I was getting a cold. My eyes were red, heavy and watery and my throat was scratchy. Overall I felt like crap. My sister had me pump myself full of echinacea (sp?), and a couple of cold remedies – Zicam and this weird elderberry syrup. I have to say that I think they kick ass as I have felt progressively better each day.

So today I was still feeling pretty lousy so I chose a light wod for today. Part of my mission while I am here is to help my niece who is an AMAZING golfer (seriously – she is going to be pro some day) get into wicked shape. So today I introduced her to proper squatting and pushup technique.

Today we did a 15min amrap of:

5 pushups

10 single skips with a 4# weighted skipping rope

15 situps

20 double unders

I did 8 rounds + 5 pushups. I was a little mad at myself because I should have easily done 10 rounds if not more, but I am going to blame it on jet lag and feeling crappy.
