Goal; After having my baby boy (and giving myself two full weeks of doing NOTHING - per Ben's suggestion), I am going to push it so that I can be eligible to attend!!! I know I can do it :) ECC Qualifier, here I come!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait!!!
ReplyDeleteOn my calendar already!!
ReplyDeleteI may miss tomorrow so did some MUs today and hit 3 unbroken during the session. A small PR from only doing singles, but a PR nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteI 'm not sure I will make the ECC but there's no harm in training like I will!
Rock on Comp WODers
