There are 2 pet ducks at the Pleasure Point Marina. They let you pet them and are seriously the cutest!

Now…..how do I convince Charlie that we need to move to Big Bear??? (seriously….)
This week has been full of some awesome workouts, so let’s get right to it!
Monday: I did a 15 minute HIIT on the treadmill. It’s amazing how much 15 minutes can make you sweat and curse. I think they go hand in hand. I also did some bouldering at the rock climbing gym.
I alternated between 6.5 and 9.0 mph on the treadmill and shared my MFT upon completion.
Tuesday: I walked on the treadmill while waiting for Charlie, and then I put us both through some hell
Here’s what we did:
3 sets of: Squat/Sled/KB Swing combo (this video is old, but this is what it is:)

3 sets of: 5 Burpee Pull Ups (with full push up and on a very high bar that required a lot of pulling up!!!) super set with 10 Medicine Ball Thrusters (18 lbs)
3 sets of: 10 Push Press (45 lbs) superset with 5 Ninja Jumps
This workout looked easier on paper than it was. I tend to do that a lot…..
Wednesday: Bouldering. Instead of what I normally do, which is climb hard and take good long breaks, I set out to be there for an hour with minimal breaks. None of my friends could go, so I decided it would be the best use of my time. Damn it was hard! Climbing gives you a pump like nothing else.
Thursday: Boxing. I’m so glad I got back into this. I almost didn’t go because I’ve got a big work project going on, but knew I would feel much better if I did. I was right and left a sweaty, soaking, hot mess. It was glorious.
My plan for today? Crossfit 14.5! I missed 14.4 because I was out of town, so I figure i’ll try this one out. I may have to scale down the thrusters, but we’ll see what happens.
Even though I was out of town last weekend, I feel like going out of town again! I love to travel and do little weekend trips, but haven’t been taking them lately. I made it a goal to change that. I’m leaving tonight and still don’t know where I’m going.
Should I go to:
1. Santa Barbara
2. Solvang
3. Dana Point
Help me decide! Leave me your choice in the comments, por favor. 🙂
