PAIN IS WEAKNESS LEAVING THE BODY

Another Thursday morning workout session and a fine one indeed. Great to see Mike back today even though he said he was going to be back yesterday afternoon until the weekend. After Karen, the legs were very sore yesterday but we continued to work on them none the less.

I have to give credit to the title to my high school swim coach Kevin Remaly. Before we got to taper, which was a 2-3 week period before one of our bigger meets towards the end of the year, we always had our toughest workouts and this quote was always found on the white board on deck.

A constant reminder that pain is weakness leaving the body continues to remind myself that I am doing this for the right reason, not only to lose weight and to build strength, but ultimately to become more fit all around.

WOD:

And I forgot to mention that on Wednesday, the infamous Karen day, I had a PR of 7 single jump ropes in a row!!
