5 AM

Cross Fit 47:13 intensity: (27:17 @1) + (2:30 @2) + (8:26 @3) + (6:24 @4) + (2:36 @5)

Slept dreadfully last night, kept thinking about the life cycle of the Prometheus/Alien aliens and getting very confused, only to remind myself that they're not real and it's 2.30am and I really should be sleeping. When I was still kind of awake at 4.45 (I must have slept a bit but I remember being awake far too often) I got up and went to 5.30 Cross Fit. Long warm up due to the early hour, with some rowing, external rotations and jumping drills, so glut massage with lacrosse balls, and then the WOD:

7 Cleans 85% 1 RM 55lb (not quite enough but I've not really cleaned from the floor before, so didn't load it up too much)
150 single skips (or 50 double unders - no chance)
14 Deadlifts with the same weight
30 cals on the airdyne

Rest 7 minutes, then do it all again, three times. Took 28.09 in total, but it seems each set was faster. The Airdyne is an instrument of torture, born out by the fact that my HR hit 191 in the space of 90 seconds on the final round. Eurgh.

Running 51:11 intensity: (18 @1) + (3:12 @2) + (32:46 @3) + (14:25 @4) + (30 @5) 6.07 km (8:26 / km) +216m 7:09 / km

Then drove to Sleeping Giant for the running bit of today's fun. Was not quite 30 degrees by then, but it was uncomfortably humid and I was horribly sweaty. Very stiff at the start but the reps (4x4, 3 mins rest) felt okay - not super fast but they were mostly on technical trails anyway. My HR got up enough to count as a proper rep. On number three I ran to the top of the tower, because it's kind of midsummer morning and you have to do something silly. Because you know, getting up at 4.45 and trying to do cleans before 6am isn't silly enough.

Then went to Will and Claire's to receive their furniture, and was very worried that Brian the mover was going to have a coronary, but he survived and we even donated him one of our Ikea Allen keys, which made him very happy as someone had stolen his. Then I went to work, which is a very sweaty place thanks to Ricardo the safety guy laying down the law on clothing - full leg cover, lab coats, the works. Eurgh. At least I am going to sleep tonight!
