I'm Back!!!

Sorry I have been on a little hiatus!  I got very sick with a special flu and it took me out of the game for a few days!  I'm almost back to me, and have been training for the past few days.  I will update my training tomorrow from the days I did not post, but I thought I'd start with today's at least!

I went to my first session with my new oly coach today!  Kyle at Santa Cruz Strength will be working with me and my partner on our olympic lifts!  I am super excited and had tons of fun today!  This is him below just being awesome.

We did the following:
clean and jerk
65% 1x5 on the minute
70% 1x5 on the minute
75% 1x5 on the minute

Then we did singles for our max for the remainder of the time.

I was really happy as I matched my previous PR even though I am still not feeling that well!
I also learned some great technique drills for my jerk and a excited to do work!

Later I met up with my team to do a mystery run!  Our coach told one of our team members... the fastest naturally, a distance and course to run and the rest of us just had to keep up and follow!  It was long and fun!  We ended up doing a trail run up in the mountains and although it got dark, we forged ahead!  Kind of scary but there were lots of us so we were fine!  We ran for an hour and although we do not know the exact milage, we were thinking 7-8 miles.  We could totally be wrong though!  It was over 6 and under 10!

When we got back I did 5x5 push press at 75% to finish.

I also went to acupuncture today with Beth, which was much needed!  We set up a plan for the next couple months and I am excited to get back on track!  I received all of my vitamins and supplements today too, so this week I should be feeling much better!
