I just finished day 3 of training (and excessive grocery shopping), and I'm SORE. I'm used to the volume from Spain, but I'm not used to the intensity. I did a lot of lower heart rate work in Spain for long stretches of time. Here in OKC, we are doing long sessions with high intensity. It's rough, but I feel really happy. Not that I wasn't happy in Spain. Just excessively elated that I'm here and was given this opportunity to improve, but equally frustrated with my strength and erg times. It's a very validating feeling to be here and be so happy while also being this frustrated. I take it as a sign that I'm doing the right thing.
Also. Yesterday we lifted. I did box jumps. I fell. My ever so kind teammate sent me this vid reminding her of me.

AuthorI'm Emma. I love food more than anyone will ever understand - specifically cheese, chocolate, bread and pretty much every fat & carb combo you can think of - apple cider donuts, ice cream, the list goes on. Fats and carbs just go so well together. Don't you think? Why is it that when I'm tasked to describe myself, I always talk about food? Anywho, I'm a rower training in OKC. Here I hope to document my struggles, successes, thoughts, and emotions, as I embark on a summer full of soreness. ArchivesCategories |
