Happy crossfit

Well we're nearly there, another few days and this barmy time of year will be over. We'll be back to normal, what ever normal is.
It has been freezing all week, the hall I'm training in is like an ice box, the local butcher asked me the other day if he could rent out a bit of space as he wanted to hang some beef in it!

I've been pairing up with a buddy of mine for training over the xmas. He's a crossfit fanatic and trains with the big lads in the Hercs' gym. Your man said Crossfit is easy, sure it looks easy when you look at it on youtube, your man is wrong!

I've had two sessions this week, and it's ego bashing. The last one included push/presses and ab roles, I felt sick at the end, but what a rush. It's really great stuff. We'll be back again tomorrow morning for some dead lifting sets and a few other killer sets, I'll see what he has planned.

I love training over the xmas period, I get frustrated if I don't. Although there is too much grazing on rubbish, every where you look, rubbish. Chocolate sweets, chocolate biscuits, chocolate crisps, well nearly.

I thought I'd go for a run today, but instead I decided I'd go for a cycle. The canal was frozen over, my two buddies had to be content with standing on the water, jebus like, instead of swimming around. They looked peeved!

The best news this xmas was Rage Against The Machine keeping the X factor kid off the number 1 spot. It's just a point of principle. I'm a fan of Rage, they speak the truth.

Fuair mo chara nuacht olc seacthaine sa chaite. Nuacht go hainnis maidir a athair agus a dreartháir. Tá suil agam go mbeidh sé ceart go lear amach anseo, is duine ar fheabhas é.

Tá an bhliain nua ag teacht!
