Rest 45 Seconds
50 pound Weighted pull-up, 15 seconds
Rest 45 Seconds
Burpees, 15 seconds
Rest 45 seconds

This is Day 2 of 5 straight days of CrossFit before I go home. I feel pretty good so far. I'm thinking about doing The Zone diet to augment my training. To be honest, I don't think I could eat a better diet than the one I'm eating here in Baghdad. I'm getting over 180 grams of protein every day, nuts, low-fat yogurt, skim milk, lean meat, fresh fruit and vegetables, and water. It doesn't get much better than that.

Kelly

25:50

Five rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
30 Box jump, 24 inch box
30 Wall ball shots, 20 pound ball

* Massive MetCon workout. Had to pace myself, bring the run way back so I wasn't resting too long on the other two events. Still pretty shattered in the end.
