    I'm really sick and running off of hardly any sleep from the last 2 days, but I made myself go into the gym to do this stupid WOD. I was aiming for 70, but when I saw everyone else's score, I was more like "well, I'll be happy with 60, especially feeling like this!"

    I managed to get 73. Could have EASILY done 75, but I stopped and was like "I'M DONE!!!"

    You know what the messed up part is?? I'm contemplating doing it again on Saturday if I'm feeling any better so I can try for 80.

    So stupid.
