Day 155 – Is Angie Murph’s little sister?

In Daily BadAss Recap on December 16, 2009 at 10:16 pm

Workout of the Day
“Angie”
100 Pullups
100 Pushups
100 Situps
100 Squats

Did Angie as RX’d and finished in exactly 20:07! I am a freak, because this is my favorite workout (Besides Cindy). I also like Murph, which is a similar WOD (but harder): 1 mile run, 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 air squats, 1 mile run. I prefer the body weight stuff (ring dips, etc.) to weightlifting workouts that involve thrusters and Overhead Squats.

But alas, my battle with emotions continues. Found myself squirting tears all day. And don’t tell me it’s from the Christmas Music. I get the opposite effect from holiday tunes – especially from that one weird ass song about sending shoes to a dead mother in heaven… don’t get that one at all.  I love how the DJs are always really somber after that song plays… when really you know inside their head they’re thinking, “I’ll lower my voice and act sensitive, even though I have no fucking clue what that song is about!”

Anyway! I don’t know. Just feel like crying (when usually I’m slow to openly cry). And when the tears come it’s like this beautiful release – kinda like scratching an itch or drinking water after a workout. The tears feel natural and good – like they’re satisfying an urge I’ve had for a long time.

  1. I love you!

  2. This is a wierd time of year for emotions. It is a hard time to live far away from home, but you have a lot to be happy about! Keep kicking arse at crossfit. Looks like you had a solid showing at the nc games. Miss you and hope to talk to you soon.

  3. I’ve been crying off and on all day. Bad day. Horrible actually. I’m comforted to know you’re teary too. By the way, thanks for the poop story. I really needed to smile today.

  4. Wowzers that’s an awesome time!! I did Angie last Thursday and JUST TODAY I can finally straighten my arms all the way. Seriously.

    Murph sounds like a total bitch and you sound like a total badass for liking it.

  5. So, I remember Joe coming home from the gym recently and telling me that “Angie” was a B with an itch. ;) Love ya!
