Had swimming for school today, was entered in all events so I was swimming all day.
Pretty tired, however I got signatures from Krisnan Inu, Kevin Locke and Sam Rapira from the NZ Warriors (rugby league team) who happened to be swimming next to us.

Training 09/02/11
WOD today was good.
for time:
50 walking lunges
30 sit ups
20 clap push ups
100 double unders
40 wall ball @ 10kg
30 KTE (knees to elbows)
30 air squats
50 ball slams @ 8kg
800m run
- time 18:21
double unders screwed me up, I have lost the skill big time, at times I was only able to get singles and doubles, most I strung together was 10 I think, these NEED some work.
Aside from that I felt OK, it was a real breather WOD and I think my breathing was pretty good.

Training 07/02/11
So had rugby training today,
did some sprint work, ball skills, tackling all of that jazz.
At this point I am playing full back, wing or 2nd five eighth (inside centre).
ended training with 5x400m sprints all out, these hurt a lot but I pushed hard so I felt good at the end.

Training 04/02/11
First session at my local affiliate CrossFit Auckland today hope to get a membership there soon.
did the following WOD
"Top Gun"
for time:
20 thrusters
20 sumo deadlift high pulls
20 push jerks
20 overhead squats
20 front squats
4 burpees on the minute every minute
RX'd weight was 60kg, as I havent done a weighted WOD in a while I went fairly light with 45kg
- Me 14:34
- Graham Holmberg (CrossFit Games Champ 2010) time 12:30 (RXd 60kg)
this really screwed me up, I have been throwing barbells around but not at high reps and not in a metcon so this one hurt me pretty bad, thrusters are a weakness of mine so it was pretty slow right from the start.
