Loved this wod, Mentally pushed myself throughout the wod with positive self talk, In 18 mins alot can go through your mind. I personally went up and down with motivation, somewhere after 7 or 8 mins i wanted to give up, I didnt know if i could keep pushing myself for another 10 minutes, i weighed this up in my mind whilst i completed a few box jumps and told myself i was on a good pace and had already done alot, just had to keep it up and ignore the uncomfortable feeling i was having. Paid off with a score im very happy about. Broke up the push press second or third round in, did 3 sets of 5,4,3, something i picked up whilst judging Kirst. Split the toes to bar up into 2 sets of 6 and 3.
Competing in crossfit for me, is a chance to see where my training has taken me, training skills and technique, strength and endurance, all the time and focus spent on practicing, I feel it would be extremely hard to stay motivated throughout all this without having the chance to see your efforts come together in a competition. Its not the only thing pushing me to train harder than ever but it certainly plays an important role. Keep training and competing Folks!
