Memorial Day Weekend, Peloton App and the Murph

Lots of things to work on today. First, tomorrow is Memorial Day here in the U.S. and I will always remember the reading by General Kelly now known as "The Last Six Seconds". It is courage like this,  in the face of certain death, that we remember on the last Monday in May.

Traditionally I have done the Murph WOD on Memorial Day. Wear the 20 lbs. vest if you have got it, body armor if you are in the military. And no Crossfit "pull-ups" damn it.... strict pull-ups that will make you suffer. We do not gimp our push-ups or squats.... why pull-ups?!

Finally, I wanted to make a plug for the Peloton App. Since my marathon I had been looking for some type of cardio work that was not too painfully boring. There was a woman at the gym that was KILLING IT on one of the spin bikes while wearing ear buds.... it was clear that she was pushing herself more than a person would on their own.... something or someone was motivating her. She told me about the Peloton App, that you could do two weeks for free and to watch the rides with Robin Arzon leading them. Super fun, very hard, great music.... check it out!

Today is a rest day prior to the morning Murph WOD tomorrow.

Have a Great Day!!
