Forging a New Normal: Elite Fran

This morning I had the opportunity to cross off one of my three month goals:

Fran as RX'd
21-15-9
65# Thrusters
pull ups


It took me forever. FOR-EVER. The other ladies were finished and then some, while I was still chipping away at this beast. Whatever....I DID IT. IT'S DONE and next time it will be faster, better, stronger, and well...faster. Thank you Mrs. Cardella for pushing me, and reminding me that this first step into elite weight territory is always rough, but be proud that you make it through. I'm so thankful that I didn't listen to my inner complainer and drop down in weight. That bitch was LOUD.

Yoga, smelly bath salts and an early bedtime will make everything perfect.

Congratulations, Erika! That's so AWESOME -- and so are you!

65-lb. thrusters. What a nightmare!

Way to go, conquering hero.

Those thrusters were TERRIBLE! Thanks for the kudos! Missed you yesterday, but if I have to share you, may as well be with Blake. :o)
