a few logs

Yesterday:

Work to heavy clean
Load: 225

10-9-8...3-2-1
95# thrusters // bar facing burpees
notes: consistent pacing but didn't crush it.

Day before yesterday:
30 wall balls @ 16#
20 kbs @ 55#
notes: crushed it.

Sunday run:
5k out and back
solid pace; felt good

Notes:
Mind: Not a fan of this time of year. Less sunlight; harder to get up in the morning; growing colder.
Body: I ought to work in more starting strength type of stuff into my routine. I've lost a lot of strength having been away from it for awhile. Otherwise, flexibility is good. Two weeks ago I did Angie (50-40...10 GHD situps and double unders) and couldn't finish it. My abs are still only about 90% recovered. I underestimated my ability to get back to those so soon... I'm going to have to on ramp.
Spirit: I've been reading quite a lot lately. I finished two books in the past 3 weeks: 1) Beyond Good and Evil; 2) The Portrait of Dorian Gray; and now I'm about 1/5 of the way through Don Quixote. Going to continue to make this part of my daily routine.
