Pala pictures are out! Tried to sum up what the race weekend meant to me! I've kind of stopped trying to "do good" and moved into my old man era of "have fun with friends", lol. But don't get me wrong, still tried to at least push myself in my 1 AG race. -- Tons of fun with races with friends, other friends, and 2 "Spartan Virgin" clients I took out for their first event!

Day 2 of Spartan Pala! -- Goal was taking 2 clients on their first race! (Bonus of running into at the startline to also race with us!) They did great! Always fun to taking newbies out on the course and watching them tackle stuff they've never tried before! Also clients kid finished 2 laps of the kids course!

My first ever bouldering competition! Let me say, I'm not an amazing climber, and was super nervous before this event, but it was open to all levels. Fun format: No grading posted, just try everything and mark the ones you topped or got to a zone. Definitely had a lot of problems outside of my skill set, but the climbing community is so awesome and supportive ended up having tons of fun! Friends and were also competing, and besties and .peck.98 came to cheer me on!

Proud of the Brotherton OCR crew that threw down on Sundays Hyrox races! A little wrench in the gears meant I got to be on camera duty watching these guys (and gals) throw down some awesome efforts! Proud of them all!

So... I DID complete my 6th solo Hyrox yesterday. Very glad I was able to get out there and do it, but also my slowest time to date!
1) I am VERY much taking responsibility for falling off my running. I wasn't as prepared as other races.
2) The week leading in, I caught a cold/bug. It was mild, but would feel it whenever I tried to exercise. Made, what turned out to be a big mistake, or taking a bunch of Mucinex the day before/morning off, to try to expel and loosen any remaining gunk. It actually dehydrated my whole body, and I couldn't retain water. When my chest was cramping trying to SING on the drive up, I knew it was going to be a long day.
So ya.... Taking away what I will. My teammate afterwards even commented: "You don't seem as dead as usual", which was true because I just couldn't breathe and push myself as usual. I got Phoenix Hyrox next on the calendar! (And a Spartan trifecta weekend in Jan)

A couple "nice camera" photos from the workout the other day! Funny thing, camera wasnt working on the actual comp day, so these are from the following week (and sorry Chris and Michelle, you left before the camera came out!)
