My crossfit waned towards the end of my last quarter. For the last two weeks, I've done three 3 mi runs, then I completed the 36 mile Rachel Carson Hike.

Today I ran 3 miles with my sister at a 9:30 min/mi pace.

Hoping to hit up a local crossfit gym a few times while I'm home in Philly.

H2O Yoga (Gili Air, Indonesia)

Spent most of today traveling from Bali to a tiny island called Gili Air so I wanted to sweat a little once I got here. Took a 90 minute Hatha/Vinyasa class, which accomplished my goal. More intensive than the class I took yesterday in Bali, not as intensive as the vinyasa (flow) classes I've taken in DC in the past, though I don't think it was supposed to be because Hatha emphasizes holding poses more than moving through a bunch of different poses. 

Included some map screen shots to give you an idea of where I am.

Last Week's Activity (Singapore + Jakarta)

Thursday 6/4/15
Ran around Singapore for 55 mins, ~6 miles

Saturday 6/6/15
Partner WOD in Jakarta:

4 rounds
30 push press 95#
30 wall balls
30 box jumps 24"

Partners alternate movements. "Resting" partner runs one lap around compound ~300m. 

Sunday 6/7/15
12 mile volcano hike outside Jakarta. 6 miles, 1,700m in elevation gain, 4 hours on the way up. 3.5 hours on the way down. 

Tuesday 6/9/15
1 hour yoga class in Bali, which was more of a stretching class than yoga. To be fair the class was called "Tight Guys Yoga." Figured I should start slow since I haven't done yoga in over a year, maybe longer. Should have taken a real class, enjoyed it nonetheless, would like to do yoga more regularly. 

Then got a 90 min full body massage that cost $17 including tip...

Koh Tao Crossfit 6/1/15 Continued

Apparently none of my text made it into the last post. 


Inspired by poov's front squat work:

3RM front squat
275x (failed third rep) - a little ways off 3x300 that I hit this spring

Then 3x3 at 245

Did the group class metcon, which was a mashup of two hero WODs, neither of which I recognized. 

800m run

3 rounds
4 muscle ups
8 strict hspu
16 kb swings 24kg

800m run

3 rounds
15 pull-ups
30 push ups
45 squats

800m run

38:24 - 95° outside/feels like 110°, running here is terrible, when I finished my shorts were completely soaked, like I just walked out of a pool. 

Finished with some accessory work:

3x15 kb side bends 32kg

Superset
4x25 banded rows
4x25 standing banded crunches
