I've learned to stop worrying about things I can't control but to focus on the things I can. Spent too much time worrying about why I'm single, why I'm never good enough only to discover that I am enough. To focus on myself solely for a time and things will work out in time

Reconnecting with my friend who i rarely see. One of my oldest friends, known since the 1st grade. As we grow older the world becomes faster so its nice to stop and cherish the friendships that are joy in our lives.
The Iron Curtain (workout for week of Feb 23rd)
For Time: 50 SA DB Thrusters (50/35) 40 RKC Swings (50/35) 30 Toes to Bar 20 Power Cleans (135/95) 400m Run 20 Power Cleans (135/95) 30 Toes to Bar 40 RKC Swings (50/35) 50 SA DB Thrusters (50/35) *25 minute time cap Scaling Options: Light: DB weight 35/20, Power Cleans 95/65, Hanging Knee Raises instead of TTB Moderate: DB weight 40/25, Power Cleans 115/80, Kipping TTB As written: 50/35 DB, 135/95 Cleans, TTB Stimulus: This is a long grind. Should take most people 18-25 minutes. This is not a sprint. The pace you set on the way down is a promise you're making to yourself on the way back up. The Lesson: This workout is built like a mirror. You descend into it thinking the run is the finish line. It's not. You turn around and everything you just did is waiting for you again. This is where your week's code meets the barbell. The Surrender Challenge is about releasing what you can't control. In this workout, you can't control the fact that the back half exists. You can't bargain with it. You can't skip it. The only thing you control is how you respond when you turn off that run and see 20 power cleans staring at you again. Your ego will want to compare the back half to the front half. It will tell you that you should be moving at the same pace. It will start doing math and telling you stories about the time cap. Let that go. The back half is a different workout than the front half. You are a different person on the way back up than you were on the way down. Surrender the idea that they should feel the same and just do the next rep. After the workout, reflect: what happened when you hit that turn? What did your inner voice say? Where did you grip and where did you let go? Drop your time and your reflection below when you're done.

@Sean Ranney nice work. Im gonna make this my weekend wod. Im gonna focus on pacing as I tend to try to speed and gas out quick due to me trying to complete the wod. Good point on focusing on the rep at the moment because, like you, I do the same. Im so focused on completion that you get discouraged by how much is left to do.

@Sean Ranney well I'm late to the game here but work has been complete hell both physically and mentally exhausting 😪 Anyways, I wanted to do these wods you post. I tagged you in Instagram btw. I didn't finish it all. Hit the 25min cap. Got through the second round of cleans. Ill definitely revisit this wod later. Nonetheless, I learned that I'm grateful for the ability to do the work and I need more improvement yet this was a rewarding wod. Thank you Sean

Had a good visit with my oldest and longest known friend I haven't seen in quite a while. Lemon pepper grilled chicken, rice and potato soup. The food was good but the catching up was the real treat

Tim is the name. Im trying to find my spark within myself again with crossfit as I've lost my way due to self esteem, regardless I will prevail.
