6:00am this morning, I was reunited with my lungs. It's been a while since I felt the burn, gasp and vomity feeling. As it was our first nice morning in a while (Thank God!), the CrossFit instructor decided to get us outside and wake up our lungs.
Workout:
400m run
10,8,6,4,2 - Front Squat (55lbs) and Burpees
400m run
The 1st 400m, I was happy to be back out on the pavement - going at a faster pace than I usually would (as I usually 'jog') I could feel the lungs wake up. By the time I got in to the gym to start the workout I knew I was in for a 'gasper'. Front squats were my rest period - burpees were slower than usual. As I headed out for the last 400m run, I couldn't feel my legs -jello they were - I was panting before I even started. By 200m I had the "I'm going to puke" feeling. Let's just say, the lungs were awake! It took me about 5mins to recover and when I arrived home my face was still bright red.
Gotta love the 6am lung wake up calls!
