Today was a perfect weather day here in West Palm Beach, FL, sunny and 78 degrees. I finished class at 3pm and headed straight to the outdoor pool. I like swimming outside but what I really need to be doing is swimming in the open water. I'm going to go ahead and order a wetsuit and start swimming in the ocean. The question I have to answer is whether I want a sleeveless or full suit. I'll do more research and let you guys know what I decide.

The crossfit endurance WOD for today's swim was:

2 x 25m with 30 second recovery
2 x 50m with 30 second recovery
2 x 100m with 45 second recovery
2 x 200m with 60 second recovery

My times for each swim were :18, :18, :38, :39, 1:28, 1:30, 3:14, 3:16
My swimming is getting much better and smoother. I just need to get some open water experience.

After waiting a few hours and getting a caramel macchiato recovery drink I headed over to BGI Fitness for some crossfit. I actually thought I was going to be late tonight only to find out that I was 30 minutes early. That just gave me some extra warmup time. The WOD tonight was "Helen gets Ballsy" which is 3 rounds for time of:

Run 400m
21 Wall balls
12 Pullups

Now if you've been following me you should know that I love any workout with a run. This one was no different. It was a ball buster but I was able to complete the entire workout without stopping once to rest. My time was 8:49 and I used a 20lb wall ball. What a great workout!

I really love this is stuff!!
