Reflection

This was my first full week of winter break. I put in several workouts at crossfit inspire and already feel like my conditioning has improved. I did some running but would like to try to increase it and even get a hill sprint workout in my boots at least once a week. I also would like to incorporate more swimming and some heavy bag work. I have to work on my skills and try out my focus WODS often. If I can improve on what I have done here for the next 3 weeks and then hit the ground running both realistically and metaphorically speaking, then I will be ready for my summer training at Quantico. I would like to try to join a crossfit gym in philly too but cannot spend as much as some of them cost.
